I replaced all of the nuts and studs. Once they are messed like that you would have to force them together and go through the same thing next time too if you didn’t fix it now. [links]
Funny you should mention this, I though I was the only one with this problem.
This weekend I put my new springs on. I got 3 of the tires off with no problem but the last one was messed up. I just had new tires put on and I don’t know if they over tightened things or cross threaded the nuts/studs, but I broke 3 of the studs while trying to get the nuts off and stripped 2 of them…1 came of clean. here
You know, the above is probably destined to fail, I think Kliers has it right. If the splines are gone it's probably because the nut was threaded wrong to begin with. If so, no amount of prying is gonna give you enough friction to get that sucker loose. more
I was working in my father in laws garage because he has all the tools. He wasn’t there yet to I was working with a lug wrench and a set of vise grips trying to get it off. I tried everything I could (with what I had) to get that thing off. I worked for about 45 mins and then he showed up, started the compressor, got out the air gun, we pulled the tire so there was a little pressure on the back of the stripped nut and in about 2 seconds, literally, it just popped off. here
You sure the stud isn't spinning too? Sounds like the splines on the stud are gone.
I took my XType Jag to get tyres changed and they snapped the bolt/nut in half and cannot get a socket in enough to get it out can you help more
