Earlier today I was switching out to my old tires and wheel because my alignment is off a tiny bit from replacing ball joints and I wont be able to get an alignment for another week, and I had a bit of trouble taking one lug nut off, but I was able to get it off. Then when I went to put it back one the stud just snapped off, a completely clean break likely caused by the extra stress from the wheel not being centered on the hub.
So, how much should it cost to replace a single stud on my own? And on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard? And I have some experience, I am capable of replacing the disks for the breaks, so I'm hoping I have a bit of an advantage there. But no matter what it still looks somewhat difficult.
And also note that when I bought the wheels that aren't hub centric, I had no idea that it mattered and the sales person at summit racing assured me that everything would fit and even said there would be no problem with them on the 96 explorer and that they would cause no problems, now I know that was wrong, and I am going to try and get the wheels replaced but I doubt that will happen since they have no proof of what the salesperson said.
And thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
