Bronco Spare Tire Key/Tool

Hi all. My buddy just bought a '95 Bronco but doesn't have the key to get the spare tire off. By key, I mean the special tool to loosen the top lugnut holding the spare to the bracket. Anyone know where to get one? Thanks.

It's called a small sledge hammer.

A lock is most likely aftermarket.
If you know of the lock manufacturer, you might want to start there.

I had a locking lug nut on mine when I got it and ended up beating a 24mm socket on it and got it off.

My 95 was also missing that special socket.I just ground in a couple of flat spots on the locknut and spun it off with a pair of locking pliers.I suppose a person could drill the stud for a small padlock.I just keep the cover on the spare,nobody can see if the lock is there or not.But my truck stays inside over night,depends on security level you require.
