RE: broken lug nuts
you need to take the front knuckle off and take it to a machine shop and have the wheel bearing pressed apart, then have all new studs pressed in. if you only do the 2, then when one of the old ones breaks in a week, youre really gonna be pissed. its a couple bucks extra for each one. and be prepared to buy a new wheel bearing, as its possible for the press to break the bearing.

I'm confused here. What are you guys talking about? Machine shop, to replace a stud??? Knock them the f**k out with a hammer and when you put the new ones in put a larger diameter nut over it and use new nut and impact wrench (if you have one, if not sucks to be you, gotta do it with a wrench) to pull the new stud in. Look in "Do it Yourself" forum of this site, I believe there is a thread on how to tdo it at home. Good Luck.

Two of my four lugnuts broke off on the front wheel due to my girlfriend thinking it had four wheel drive. What will it take to replce them and what do i need to do. Any ideas please.
