    A cutting wheel on a grinder, $20 Harbor Freight will take them off faster and easier than anything. Or a cutting torch.

    Volvo u-bolt # 20504754 $20-$25/ea.
    Volvo wheel nut # 21823706 $10-$15/ea.
    I use a 3/4" gun to tighten them and haven't had one loosen yet.

    I looked into one of those huck nut crimpers. They're over $3K. I'll stick with the threaded u-bolts.

    All done. Found one of the alignment pins was also sheared off, the axles were not square at all.
    Much better now!
