How Do You Remove A Broken Lug Nut Stud?
Lug nut studs hold a tire onto the hub surface. A broken lug nut stud is dangerous because it’s not holding the tire anymore and will cause the tire to wobble and possibly come off during a turn. A broken lug nut stud can also lead to costly future repairs by causing damage to the wheel assembly and steering assembly. Step 1 Put on safety goggles to protect your eyes since you will be working with metal. Step 2 Line up your hammer with the broken lug nut stud. Step 3 Strike the lug nut stud carefully until it comes out of the hole. Step 4 Check the hole for any visible damage before putting in a new lug nut stud. Step 5 Look at all of your lug nut studs for visible damage.
