Replacing Wheel Studs on a 2001 maxima

Hey guys,

I have 2 bad wheel studs on my 01 maxima and wanted to change them. I've never done this before and was hoping that someone cause give me a easy step by step process that I can follow to do this or just copy and paste a link with one. Also if you can let me know what tools ill need so I don't have to drive back and forth the auto parts store cause I don't have a ton of tools and am collecting them as I need them. Thanks a lot, really appreciate all the help.

A hammer is great, but a BFH helps even more.

I use a 3lb sledge.

Where in NJ are you? I do installs for local org members.

And maybe an old shirt to lower the noise/violence/ringing.
