This is the way Mum taught us, works everytime:

Need:

#1. One roll, duct tape, 2 wide, I prefer Scotch brand mfg. code 000123-99.

#2. One coffee can (generic will work, however shops prefer gourmet coffee
cans)
empty with one end removed,

#3. 4lb.s C-4 at base, use mil spec code 000000-00-98-010221A.

#4. Chemical fuse, mil spec code USA, AN, 0000654-975433.

Directions:

Shape the C-4 into an inverted 45 degree cone, center of the can, insert 20
second chemical fuse. Tape can to vehicle rim, position directly over the
offending lug nut...pointy end of inverted cone facing away from rim... very
important.

Pull fuse....run like hell for full 20 seconds... don't stop. After the
initial blast wait 30 seconds for possible secondary explosions and also for
ambient debris to land in and around your work area.

Next, weld new half of truck to the undamaged half. End

Warning: Do not attempt to unstick more than 20 nuts at a time on opposing
wheels as it's possible to accidently form a sub atomic reaction and you will
only be 20 seconds away from ground zero.
