Stripping is often caused by overtightening. Breaking is usually caused when the lug nut is not tight enough and the wheel moves against the stud.
The hub caps are held on with the lug nut covers, these are plastic, and screw on the lug bolts if you use the lug wrench you can loosen the plastic hub cap lug bolts and be able to remove the hub cap without loosening the lug bolts. 2001 L200's have lug bolts rather than lug nuts.
You could stretch the bolts, strip the threads out of the flywheel or break the bolts off in the flywheel.
Yes, unless you want to break the cover.
My 2001 L200 has 5 lug bolts
Not aligning the threads up correctly and forcing the lug nut onto the wheel stud will strip the lug nut.
pound them out with a hammer.
The 1979 GMC Sierra Grande lug nut spacing is 5-inches. The wheels have 5 lug bolts. Models before 1971 had 6 bolts,with a 5.5-inch spacing.
there is four bolts inside of the finder two on both sides they should be about one foot from the break drumb so good luck be careful with the bolts don't strip them.
The best lug wrench is the cross shaped type with 4 different sockets. This is the only hand wrench that will apply enough torque on your lug bolts.
if disk brakes, u can install while on vehicle just knock out old lug bolts with a hammer and insert new ones in same place if drum brakes. u need to remove brake drum then the lugbolts can either be knocked out of axle all lug bolts have a fine spline on them and are little bit tapered the spline is to stop them turning when loosening or tightening lug nuts
