Aren't they security coded, so all diferent? Not much of a security lock nut if they were the same.

I'd go to super cheap and go buy a pack of four nuts with the special tool in it and take the old OEM one off the jeep....... Cheap and easy fix

Thanks for the replys boys.

Problem solved, pumped up the tyre at home with RACQ and drove to tyrepower, he ripped it off in 2 seconds with the air gun and the lock nut was punted into the bin and he repaired the tyre for $20 and off i went. All ready for tommorrows trip out to Giraween on the Granite belt in QLD, near Stanthorpe.

Which obviously means you don't have a compressor! If you let your tyres down for more grip (and comfort) on the offroad tracks, how are you going to pump them up again? Keep the speed down when you get back on the highway on soft tyres, otherwise they will overheat - not to mention the lack of stability.

A decent 12v compressor should be one of the first accessories bought for any offroader.
