Shop stripped my lug nut
I was going to adjust my teins today when I got to a stripped lug nut and couldn't get it off.I did the other 3 shocks but the my front driver side is hangin at about a 3 inch drop while the others are at 2.My question is how do I get the stripped lug nut off?

Take a socket that will almost fit over the lugnut and wail on that baby with a BFH like this 
until it scores grooves and goes over the lugnut. This engagement should then allow you to get it off with the socket on it. I had to do this once on my Accord...
