Dorman - Autograde Wheel Lug Nut P/N:611-231
Swap out bulging, hard-to-remove factory wheel nuts with the Dorman wheel lug nut 611-136, a one-piece, carbon steel dome-top nut from Dorman's OE FIX line. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2001-2004 Ford Escape, 2000-2008 Ford Focus and 1986-2007 Ford Taurus. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
On certain vehicles, the original lug nuts use a two-piece design with a thin veneer cover. Repeated use can damage that veneer, and moisture that gets underneath can make the cover bulge. That can leave the nut difficult or impossible to remove, and freeing a stuck nut usually means damaging the wheel itself. This replacement is designed to match the original's fit and function. Its one-piece, carbon steel construction is intended to help keep the same problem from coming back.
Specifications: M12-1.50 thread, dome top, 19mm hex, 37mm length.
Like other Dorman lug nuts, this nut threads onto the wheel stud to clamp the wheel against the hub. A swollen cap or a hex the lug wrench no longer seats on are signs a lug nut may need replacing.
