can't think of the name of the part

The bolt that your lug nut screws on to...I have one of those thats messed up. Rather than take a hack saw and cut it back a few threads...can I just replace the one? thanks

 

Wheel stud?

 

wheel stud is what I believe they are called. I think that is a good idea, I am sure you can.

2.) take off wheel assembly
3.) remove brakes/rotors
4.) disconnect ABS cirlce sensor thing
5.) pound out old stud
6.) finangle out stud out
7.) finangle new stud in

9.) put alot of washers on the stud and use a lug nut to pull it into place
10.) reassemble

BF hammer (stud)
Allen wrenches (abs thing)

LOL.. gotta have the mobile one lube "mechanic"

 

"my general mechanic recommends swaybar endlinks and power steering flushes, he is really great"

 

I work there. So far I've drained Tranny Fluid by accident and Shot oil all over someone's engine, and LMAO even put sythetic gear lube in someones subie diff. When valvoline pressures u to sell things, you dont have a choice! Unless you wanna see your bosses boss!

 

Valvoline is on the list of bad. Their products are nice, but the Instant Oil Change Service isn't.
