Snapped a wheel stud.

Thankfully, this is all sorted, without the need to swap in a new stud.

Even though the problematic stud showed significant trauma, the el cheapo tap and die set I own but have not needed to use for a number of years was able to fix this.....with a minimum of swearing.

Things have not always worked out this way.

Yipee.

I don't own any special cutting fluid, but a mixture of WD40 and the Loctite Nickel Anti-Seize 771 that I referred to earlier did a good, but slow, job of resetting the threads for the nuts and studs.

I did all 5 just to be sure.
