Today i patched my tire and being the lazy bum I am i did not spend the time to go and borrow my friends torque rentch to put the wheel back on so in the process i over torqued and brook a lug stud. What do i need to do to replace it. Is it hard, should i take it to a shop. Does it require any special tools??

-Thanks

 

YOu can get a replacement stud at most auto stores. You hammer the old one out, and hammer the new one in..

 

My bro did this with his 240sx... Buy a new bolt and lug nut, don't bother trying to get the old bolt out, TRUST ME. It's worth the $15 or so to buy a new lug nut.

 

I already got the brooken part of the stud out of the lug, I just need to get the brooken stud out of the car and a new one in, cause im driven with 4lugs on my back left and i dont want to do it for to long... I think u might have to take the brake off

 

No, just hammer the stud out!! ITs so easy its painful!!

 

i had to replace 2 in the rear (yes i was running on 3 studs for a short time) it was really easy. the studs are like 2 dollars at autozone (yes i know but they are cheaper damn it) btw i did this the day after i had a wisdom tooth pulled.
