Post Wheel Lock Removal

Anyone have any ideas on how to remove some Gorilla Wheel locks off (on my Bronco) if you have misplaced the key and the reorder slip? I know I can tear up some sockets, but I would rather not if anyone has some ideas.
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like you have the right idea. Any 1/2" socket pounded on will take it off, impact sockets do the job and they will only ruin the locks....

This happened to my friend's old Mustand and we used a big pipe wrench to get it off.

Go to any tire store, they normally carry special sockets to remove wheel locks. If you buy new locks there, they'll remove the old locks free.
