ABSTRACT:
A device for use with a tool for rotating a wheel nut of a vehicle. The device is fittable to a diameter of a wheel to facilitate the turning of a wheel nut for loosening for removal of the wheel from the vehicle or for tightening the wheel to the vehicle. The device has a outer diameter, the device comprising a monolithic star-shaped body having extended portions that extend to a diameter that approaches the inner diameter of the wheel or fits around the outer diameter of the wheel. Apertures through the device are arranged in a base circle pattern that matches the diameter circle of the wheel nuts. An aperture is provided for the axle hub. A stabilizer can be used with a sleeve for maintaining the tool along the centerline.
