I've run into a problem. One of my wheel studs had gone bad and while removing the wheel, I had the other 3 shear. Now I can not get any of the studs out. I had been told there was a groove to remove the studs but it seems to be born of legend not fact.

So the question is what is the best way to remove the studs and get my baby back on the road.

Frank you're going to have to press the hub assembly out of the spindle (front) or unbolt the hub assembly (rear). Next you can simply use a hammer and hit the wheel stud out of the hub. Put a new one in (it has splines on it that keep it from turning inside the hub assembly) and reassemble everything. I've hammered out the front bearings, but it's recommended to press them out. I hope this helps.
