Wheel studs being replaced next week
After a bit of enthusiastic driving the scoob managed to shear two wheel studs off last weekend.
The 10 fronts are being replaced next week and I have asked if I can be present as the work takes place. Any ideas on how its done and what I should be watching for to make sure its done right???? 90NM is the torque setting and thats about where my knowledge gets to in this area.

I did 2 of mine a few weeks ago - pretty easy even for a numptie like me.
Take Wheel off.
Unbolt caliper & remove
pull disc off
hammer old stud out
put new stud in and tap until in place
replace disc & caliper & wheel.
I buggered one stud up as I thought tightening the wheel nut would pull the new stud through to tighten it - WRONG! I lost the thread off both the nut and stud.
