NO PROBLEM, I REACHED FOR MY JACK AND GOT MY ITEMS FROM UNDER MY REAR SEAT. "DISCOVERED" THAT THERE WAS NO LUG WRENCH IN MY KIT. QUESTION: WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE THE TIRE LUG? AlSO, WHAT CAN I BUY TO GET THEM OFF? I HOPE THE TOOL CAN BE PURCHASED AT AUTOZONE OR SEARS B/C I DON'T WANT TO COUGH UP ANY MONEY TO THE DEALERSHIP.   Chad Mayes (Cmayes) Member Username: Cmayes Post Number: 63 Registered: 04-2003 Posted on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 07:56 am:    Get a 1/2-inch breaker bar from Sears, that will work, usually better than the factory tire-iron. I can't remember the size for sure but I think it’s a 28mm. Can someone verify?   ANTONIO DAVIS (Acacia1) New Member Username: Acacia1 Post Number: 26 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 08:28 am:    IT'S A 98 DISCO....SORRY I DIDN'T SPECIFY.

Not sure if this helps price for the 4-way is $16.00 if I remember correctly.   dareDVL (Daredvl) Member Username: Daredvl Post Number: 53 Registered: 03-2003 Posted on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 09:39 am:    Get the 4-way .. you can get better leverage on it.
