Another option dyan eh drilling nga or welding sa ibabaw with another bolt para mapihit.

Kung matiyaga yung mekaniko puede rin niya isinsil yan ng unti-unti hanggang lumuwag para mapihit o kaya ay sinsil hanggang maubos yung ulo para matanggal yung gulong.

Puede ring drill ang gamitin with special drill bit yung cylindrical grinder stone or yung cylindrical na pambutas para maubos kahit yung ulo lang.

Mas maraming option kang pagpipilian kung sa machine shop mo yan daldalhin mas marami silang gamit doon.

tanggalin mo yung hub cover gamit ang allen wrench.

pag nakita na ang malaking castle nut, tanggalin ang lock pin.tapos tanggalin ang castle nut.

tanggalin din ang caliper.

pwede nang tanggalin ang assembly.

after that, pwede mo nang drill out ang ulo ng mga studs na sira.

Sorry. washer-type pala yan. kala ko yung cone-type.

Tanggalin mo lang yung di sira, pwede nang tanggalin ang gulong.

Guido,
Sir Turbo is right. If thats is the way naputol, try to untighten the rest pwede rin maputol lahat only the head holds the mags. Without the heads the mags should slip out already even if the remaining part is still attached. Then you can use a visegrip to remove the remainder of the nuts and maybe still use all five of your studs.

salamat sa mga ideas nyo.
tinanggal ko na yung 2 nut na ok pa. di rin pwede matangal mags.
the tip of the nut also holds the mags, hindi lang yung head na naputol.
siguro yung sinasabi ni mile2 ang gagawin ko. drill and sinsil the nut and bolt.
wait ko pa rin yung mech kung anu ideas nya.
baka puede yung sinasabi ni turbo, pag natanggal ba yung locking hub assembly, kasama na gulong? sa likod ko na lang putulin yung nga studs?

Kung tanggal na yung dalawang maayos na nut.

Atras-abante mo, tapos bigla ang preno. Maigsi lang, mga 2 feet lang para lumuwag.

kung di pa lumuwag, liko todo sa kanan, tapos atras-abante, tapos sa kaliwa naman.

Siguradong luluwag yan.

Wag ka lang magpapatabi sa sasakyan at baka may mabagsakan.

Mararamdaman mo naman yan na lumuluwag bago tuluyang matanggal ang gulong.

buy a relatively large diameter screw extractor - yung slightly thinner than the lug bolts.

soak in penetrating oil (wd40) overnight.

drill the remaining lug nuts using appropriate bit.

remove bolt using screw extractor.

Sorry, i did not notice na lug nut pala ang putol, hindi bolt. my previous suggestion (screw extrator) will not work.

Welding na lang siguro but looks like mahirap ang position.
