Well I drive an 88 accord, and i had 3 lugs in the front right wheel because my friend snapped one when tightening them... I heard a clicking noise coming from the right shaft in the front, so I thought it was the lugs being loose. I then tightened them and snapped another one, so now 2 are snapped in half inside. I was wondering if its even drivable... or worth it. And how should i go about fixing this? Can i do it myself? BTW the ones that are still there are good... they are opposite from eachother as well. God dammit, I just added some stuff to my car too... any help is appreciated...

DUDE you shouldn't even be driving with 3 lugs. You need all 4.
You're going to have to remove the wheel remove the hub, and then replace the broken studs.

 

Where should I get the stud replacements? Junk yard?? Well hmm I need this done quick, i have to work tomorro night, thanks though.

 

honda dealership, they're like 3 bucks a peice.

 

I managed to remove the brake assembly, including drum/disc. I can not get the final plate out that has the studs in them. I was able to remove the large nut (had to use a 1 1/4" wrench as I don' t have anything that big in metric). I can't get the pate out to remove the broken studs.... what shall I do? (any links to an exploded view with details, would also be appreciated! )

 

Maybe this will help some...

I'm not sure of the details though. But I'd say one of the first things you need to get is a torque wrench, hehe. Only 80 ft/lbs on those lugs If you're hearing a clicking from the front end (especially in turns) it's most likely the CV joints going out.

 

Thanks Jared, I got it
