Happened to me once when I had an 89 Bronco.

I got it out with a heavy chisel and sledge hammer along with the help of my brother. We knocked it counterclockwise break it loose.

Of course I had to replace the bolt afterwards

Go to You Tube and look at a video. It seems like you just find a socket thats slightly smaller than the lug nut and hammer the socket onto the wheel lock.

Thanks for the help. They was all good ideas.After beating a socket up petty bad and still didn`t get it off I ended up going to discount tires and getting a key socket.That only worked after putting some heat to the lug.Then it came off real easy.Now i`am just waiting for school to start and temps to drop a bit and this old angler will catch you out on the lake.Thanks again!
