Replaced it, but how strange...
Those lug nuts rust under the chrome acorn cap, and swell . I see it all the time . Chrysler 19mm, and 22 mm , I have to pound on a 20 mm, or 7/8" socket to get some of them off
Takes me 45 minutes to a damn state inspection, because I have to pound the sockets on , then take them over to the vice, and pound the lug nuts back out of the socket . grrrr.
