I have a striped out lug nut, so i went to pick up a stud at nissan as i plan to do this while i'm doing my brakes. From my understanding after i take off the rotor and expose the hub. I put on a nut and hammer the nut untill the stud comes out the other end and just simply pull it out after that.

But how do i get the stub back in to place, since i dont think i can hammer it back in. I cant really think of a nice way to pull the stud back into its place.

 

screw the nut on it until it pops into place. check the wheel spacer install in the 4th or 5th gen (i forgot which)stickies, shows how put in new studs

 

put stud on...use a few washers...open ended lug nut and crank away...if u have air use it

 

hm... must hunt down daily house hold items that could be used for this then.

i also went thru the 3 pages in the tire/wheel section didn't see must on the spacers.

 

its easy...jsut find some washers to put inbetween the hub and lug nut then just crank away

scroll down to the middle of the page

 

Everyone has made it pretty clear, it's not too hard. Just don't let it go in sideways.

 

air tools make quick work of this. i put in 2 lugs once within a minute.
