need a key for 6-spline locking lugs

so my 2000 F150 came with these 6-spline locking lug nuts, and of course didnt come with a key for them. i ordered a key, but its a bit too small. does anyone know what size and where i can find one? or a good alternative? thanks

For grins - look in the glove box. My lugs came w/ a sticker referencing the key number. Feel free to post a pic if someone can match it. I'll lookup my key number and post as well.

did you try seeing if you could send them a photo? I lost the locking lug socket for my mcgards and they just needed a close up photo and were able to help me.

There are two threads sizes for a 2000 F150, 12 x 1.75 and 14 x 2.00. http://www.gorilla-auto.com/pdf/GAG10.pdf page 21

I have 14 x 2.00 on my 2005 6x135 rims and my key is 1378SD1.


See what THIS GUY ended up doing
