Broke pos splined lug nut socket....need another one

[TacomaJD]

When I bought these LE wheels off of Craigslist for my Ranger, the guy gave me an aftermarket set of lug nuts to work woth the aluminum wheels, along with a splined socket that went with em. I just broke the little thin piece of ****, now where or how do I find another one? No markings on it as to indicate a size or manufacturer, so I'm not really sure where to look. Pics below.

Damn...that's some light duty ****. No way to tap a thin-walled deep socket over top of the lug nut just to get'em off?

Re:

It broke when putting the last wheel back on after finishing the lift kit. I'm eventually gonna order new wheels and tires, which will probably come with new lug nuts and another socket, but it will be a few more weeks. I need to finish tightening 3 lug nuts on one wheel, and will obviously need to take em back off when I get the new wheels/tires in.

If you have any of the nuts off, go to a local atv store or tire shop with a lug nut to figure out what pattern it is??
I have had good luck with a local tire shop on a locking lug nut that I didn't get the socket for when I bought the vehicle.

Re:

Will try that, maybe between a couple tire shops and Yamaha dealer in town, somebody will have one. Burns me up.

Or find a local wheel/tire thief...they probably have the whole set :****:

I have a few of them sockets if you cant find one locally.

do you have a Discount Tire nearby? if so, we carry 2 different sizes and are typically Gorilla brand. hope that helps.

I think Pepboys carries the other bigger brand (which escapes me right now)

No hammering, I need a replacement, because it won't be the last time I use it.

It wouldn't fit into the lug well then.
