replacing stud?

Feb 26, 2007 2 Replies

my friend just bought a 2001 gt. well this weekend we where putting new brakes and rotors on the front, and discovered a broke off lug stud bolt. has anyone replaced one of these or know how its done? looks like the treads were crossed and it snapped off. not enough stud to hold on a lug nut. thanks for any help. mp



Front or rear?

Essentially, you need to remove the part that the stud goes through. Take it to a machine shop and have them press out the old one and press in a new one.

I'v tried doing it with a large C clamp, but that didn't work for me. Don't use a hammer.

most tire places can do it
