I am trying to work on the brakes on my truck and i have a problem with one lug nut. When I try to pull the lug nut off the stud spins with it. I have never encountered this problem before. How do I get this wheel off?

The easiest way is to put the lugs back n, drive to a shop that can torch it off, next way is to try to break the lug, either by pulling the tire outward, or using a socket and a large wrench to bend it back and forth until it snaps..
