I was going to pull the driver's side front control arm off of my 85' donor car tonight. But the locking lug on my donor car does not match the locking lug key from my 2a. There was no locking lug key in my donor car. the locking lug key I have is the four point swirl. The locking lugs on my donor car is a circular with 5 ribs. Does anyone know where to find a locking lug key with this pattern?

You can try two things, 1st look in the trunk of your car under the carpert to the right across from the speaker. There might be a McGard sticker with a number for the wheel lock. You can call McGard or go to the dealer with the number. 2nd you can get a socket that fits snug and smash it on
but tighten the other lug nuts first. Good Luck -RICH-

There is a tool...
If you still need help with this, Napa Auto parts and other parts stores have the tapered tool you need to whack onto the locking nut and remove it. Since it is somewhat smooth it does a lot less damage than a socket if you planned on saving the locking nut and getting the correct key.
Good Luck!

Definitley go with a deep twelve point socket that you do not mind losing. I used to remove those when I busted tires at a hot rod shop and a sledge hammer with a twelve point would beat the removal kits EVERY TIME!!!!!
Good Luck
