So i stripped one of my wheelstud in the front. How do i replace these? I really don't know where to start? I only have handtools and no compressor, can i do this easy without the use of airtools? thanks in advance
What else should i do while i replace these? wheel bearings maybe?

No one answered this one? I'm sure it's in the archives...

Get the biggest hammer you can find. Beat the wheel stud into the hub. It will pop out the back side. There's a shoulder and splines to hold it into the hub. Just replace the stud with a new one. Now, you're not supposed to do this, but you can use the nut and thread it on until it pulls the stud into place.

It works and doesn't put a lot of stress on the bearings so I wouldn't worry too much about it.
