Was installing new powerslot rotors yesterday with a friend and when I was tightening the front left wheel one of the studs snapped off. How hard is it to change one out? Can you just punch the broken one out with a hammer and slide a new stud in the back of the wheel hub? Thanks!

yes , you can beat the old stud out with a mallet and put the new one in the same way . Very simple to do , I recommend taking the hub off the car . You can get a new stud at any autopart store or the dealer .

Good luck!!
