Somewhere, in the cloudy back of my mind, do you not need a special
5 sided socket to remove the nuts from a 2 piece HMMWV wheel?
A regular 6 or 12 sided socket can only be used to remove the wheel
from the vehicle.
Was this not done to prevent accidents from occuring?
Kind of like how they painted the rim nuts red on the WW2 trucks.
