An impact wrench is THE tool for this job. I have a group of washers and a large diameter lug nut I use to draw the new studs in. You should try to hit the splines in the same grooves as the old stu

Believe it or not, my best source is thru the JC Whitney catalog. Look for sound deadening pads. They come in about 24" squares that you can trim. Self-adhesive, and mold to shape with a heat gun. No

No offense Dick, but I have to disagree. The weakest links I see in a stock car (after thrust-washers, clutch and tranny) are in the rear end/ rear axle bearing components. That is based on failures
