How do you Replace Wheel Studs on a Drum?
The wheel studs are the main components that hold the wheel tight to the drum. The lug nuts screw onto the front of the wheel studs. When the lug nuts are being tightened, the wheel will compress to the drum. The lug nuts put pressure on the front side of the wheel while the drum puts pressure on the back side of the wheel. Replace the wheel stud immediately if there is cracking or any other type of damage present.Step 1Park the vehicle in a safe location with plenty of working room.Step 2Loosen the lug nuts from the wheel requiring wheel stud replacement with a tire tool.Step 3Jack up the side of the vehicle you are working on with a floor jack and put a car stand under the proper jacking point. Lower the vehicle onto the stand and leave the jack in place.Step 4Unscrew the lug nuts and pull the wheel off. Place the wheel flat so that it does not roll away.Step 5Slide the pry bar between the brake caliper and the brake rotor. Pry the caliper back and forth until the brake caliper becomes loose enough to remove from the side of the rotor.Step 6Unscrew the two mounting bolts from the rear of the brake caliper with a 3/8-inch drive ratchet and a socket. Pull the caliper off of the rotor and hang it to the frame rail or to one of the steering components with a bungee strap.Step 7Tap the drum on the back side with a rubber mallet until the drum is loose. Then, pull the drum off with your hands. If the drum is stuck or very tight, rotate the drum as you are tapping the back side.Step 8Turn the wheel hub so that the wheel studs can be removed from the back side of the wheel hub plate. Put the safety glasses on and hit the wheel stud squarely in the center of the stud with a handheld sledgehammer until it comes out the back side of the hub.Step 9Continue turning the wheel hub and tapping the wheel studs with the sledge hammer until all of the wheels studs are out.Step 10Line the grooves of the new wheel stud up with the grooved holes on the back side of the wheel hub plate. Push the wheel stud into the grooved hole. Hit the head of the wheel stud with the sledgehammer until the head of the wheel stud is completely flush with the back side of the wheel hub plate.Step 11Repeat process with the remaining wheel studs.Step 12Reinstall the brake caliper and the wheel. Tighten both components. Jack the vehicle back up and remove the stand. Lower the vehicle to the ground. Finish tightening the lug nuts with the tire tool until each lug nut stops turning.

Lug nut bolt broke while trying to get tire off how do you remove it?
You may have to get a nut splitter, a grinder, or a hammer and chisel to get nut off and then have stud replaced. Hopefully the splines in the drum haven't been torn out and a new stud can be pressed in. If not, you might be running a lug nut short (which is not at all wise) or you'll have to come up with a new drum. Auto recyclers live for challenges like this.
