replacing wheel stud

Rahnter · 12-09-2008, 12:16 AM

I own a 90 supra, but the previous owner had replaced the wheel hub and wheels with mkiv's (17x8front/17x9.5rear). Now I was changing the front tire with much gusto and one of the wheel studs broke off. It was already dark out (and cold) by the time this happened, so I headed inside. Now my question, which could prolly be answered by me simply looking, is if the wheel stud can be punched out or if I have to get it welded back on, or replace the wheel hub. I thought I'd ask, so I can mentally prepare myself for what needs to be done tomorrow. Any help is greatly appreciated.
