I guess I would ask what actually happened here. Were the nuts loose and did the studs actually bend or are they crooked in the axle holes. At some point I would be worried about pounding on an axle that is still installed in the rearend.
i think the lugnuts sheared, or were loose. the studs did bend. would it screw up the seal in the hub if I put a torch on it to heat up the area around the studs to try and press out?
