zed2 Posted January 30, 2022 Share #1 Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) I have two different style wheel wrenches, both fitting the stock Series 1 lug nut. As you can see, the primary difference is the position of angle tip, one parallel (top) one perpendicular (bottom), to the handle. Most 240Zs appear to have the bottom style. Does anyone know the model year application to both top and bottom styles? Thanks, Keith Edited January 31, 2022 by zed2 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/66301-wheel-wrench-styes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to clarify, your 01/10 has the top style, your 06/72 has the bottom style?

siteunseen Posted January 31, 2022 Share #5 Posted January 31, 2022 My early '72 has the horizontal hubcap popper as shown in the OP's pictures. I guess it's actually perpendicular with the wheel nut end. Easier to pry with the later style. . 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/66301-wheel-wrench-styes/#findComment-635105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
