    Broke a wheel stud, help please.

    Like stated, I noticed some bad vibration coming from the front pass wheel so I pulled over to inspect and found that I only had two lug nuts left and they were loose. I went to tighten them down and broke one of the studs. Can I replace just the one studs and how

    Just remove your wheel and remove your hub, buy new lugs and press the old ones out and press new ones in and you're done.

      I have been looking for an easier way to do this so I wouldn't have to remove the hub and I think I found the answer. Can anyone confirm this method ?

        Its very easy, remove your break caliper and harmmer them out, then just hammer the new ones in from the back. Hope that helps

                you might as well get some arp extended studs, then you might as well go with open lug nuts. so you might as well get some low offset wheels.


                i didnt have a press handy so i just used an impact wrench, and an open lug nut til the stud sat flush with the hub

                except i didnt grind it

                  i did mine without using a hammer to put them in, i put them in the put a open lug not on it with the flat side to the hub and used a socket to "press" it into place by threading the nut all the way down

                  i did use a hammer to get the bad ones out

                      pretty much the same, but you have to remove the drums.

                          Umm, jack the car up, remove the tire, and then remove the drum? It's not really attached by much of anything. Tap it with a mallet, pry it a bit with a screwdriver or prybar? There should be two threaded holes in the thing, find the right sized bolt to start threading into each of them (I think it's like M8) and as you turn the bolt it'll push against something or other and start pushing the drum off.

                              You dont have to touch the drum brake pads, spring and all that. Just get the 8mm bolts, thread them into the threaded holes on the drum and the drum will pull off on its own. Very simple. I just did the bearings on my rear drum.
