Where are you going to be (and traveling at what speed?) when the rest of them decide to shear off? DO NOT try to use the lug nut to pull the new studs into place- - - -a ball joint press or a big C-clamp over a deep socket is the right way to install them. The really right way is to remove the axles and hubs and do it in a hydraulic press. You're betting your life on those studs every time you drive, plus you're putting the rest of us who share the road at risk when (not if) a wheel decides to run off. Jerry
