I broke my wheel stud on my front drivers side. Has any one changed one out before?

I had to unbolt the brake calipers to get to the studs.

they're easy


remove the entire caliper, remove the rotor, then turn the hub so that the stud u fucked up can come out the back, get a hammer and beat the old one out, insert new stud from the back of the hub, throw a couple washers on it, put an open ended lug nut on it, and power it on until its flush with the back of the hub. piece of cake.


the studs cost like $1.50 from the dealer.
