    The one I used in this video on the Corolla is: Dorman 610-266 Wheel Stud
    You will need to get both front wheels off the ground unless you have your broken bolt aligned perfectly with the groove. [not likely]
    Replacement bolts are about $2. Most auto parts stores carry them.
    If you are going to use Threadlocker, use the BLUE and NOT the Red. The blue is easier to remove. See it here amzn.to/2eTZLV4
    The car I am working on is a 2003 Toyota Corolla.

    Good video for the DIY people out there. Just a few side notes to add. First, when installing the new wheel stud you always want to use some sort of oil on the spline of the stud. Your are essentially pressing the stud into the hub face so some sort of oil should be used. Whether it be WD-40, motor oil or all purpose oil you need to lubricate it before tightening/pressing the stud into the hub face or you could be looking at replacing the whole hub assembly in some cases. It also makes it much easier for the stud to press into the hub. Next, NEVER use red loctite on your caliper bracket bolts. Most newer cars use cast aluminum steering knuckles and using permanent thread lock can and will be a costly mistake. I'm an ASE and Michigan certified master mechanic. In Michigan we deal with a lot of salt which makes these types of jobs difficult. So adding thread lock is the opposite of what you want to do. You should add some sort of anti-seize on the caliper bracket bolts and it's very important to torque them down to your specific vehicles manufacturer specification. Lastly, I do not recommend stacking washers to take up the slack on the wheel stud. I typically use a 16mm impact socket. By using a socket or a bushing that the taper fits towards the outside of the taper on your lug nut, you won't risk damaging the end of your threads on lug nut. I'm not writing this to be negative, I'm trying to help others avoid some of the mistakes I've made in the last 18 years of wrenching. I appreciate your video and all of you "do it yourselfers" taking the time and energy to helpful videos so people can do their own automotive repairs. Good video! Thanks for contributing to the automotive DIY RUclips community. Keep up the good work!!

      this isnt something you have to do if you are broke. You can drive a corolla on 3 studs if need be. There is not much weight on the wheels.

      ​@@Y10Q Well the way I look at it there has to be a reason they put 5 studs on it it's supposed to be run with 5 studs the way I see it. If it were me I would probably drive mine with a broken stud but my 18 year old daughter is gonna be driving the car so we're gonna have to have that broken stud replaced.

    Thank you so much for posting this easy to follow video. I hate getting jerked around at the mechanic shops because I'm a woman. When I went to have my tires rotated, the same thing happened to me here in this video. I was told it would cost over $600 (worse case scenario) when I knew that stud was less than $3.... I've been working hard to learn how to fix minor issues on my own and have been successful thanks to people like you! Thanks!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you🙏. Your video is the ONLY one I’ve seen that showed and explained about how to remove the calipers properly and the rotors. Every other video skipped all of this and it’s important to complete the job. You’re my personal savior, I swear. Now I’m confident I can do it.

  • @chocolate_squiggle
    @chocolate_squiggle 4 года назад +2

    Awesome, I have an '02 Corolla, just did my brakes this week so that all looks very familiar :-) Not had the lug nut problem but I keep reading about people snapping them off and feared that must result in a huge big job replacing major wheel parts. I had no idea you could literally replace one stud until today. And other videos I've watched show people cutting the dust shield and filing down half of the nut head to squeeze it in place, made me nervous considering how important those studs are. Seeing how easy it is on the Corolla puts my mind at ease. Thanks for showing this process.

  • @MattEzell
    @MattEzell 7 лет назад +2

    Thank you for this. Recently took my 09 Corolla in to have a tire patched after picking up a fastener. Today, I decided to swap my front brakes before heading out for holiday travel (a job that I've done 20+ times over the years across various vehicles) and noticed that one of my nuts had been cross threaded - leading to me sheer the bolt during removal. As if often the case, my ~30 min job has turned into a ~2hr job (now that I have to make another trip to the auto store), but your video helped me learn what I needed to do which will ultimately save me some additional wasted time. Now, off to the store with bold and nut in hand! Thanks!

    @lydiahubbell6278 10 месяцев назад +1

    I don’t know if someone already said this, because I just started watching, but rather than using a stack of washers, I was told to use an extra lug nut upside down/ backwards? and tighten it down, then tighten it down more with another lug nut to “seat” the stud. I tried forever in a different car to do this until I was finally told that it was probably unsuccessful because zi had an after-market wheel hub assembly, and there were no studs to pop back in. That was one of the rare times i have given up mid-job to have my car towed to the shop.

    Costco broke off one of my studs replacing tires with a new set of Michelins yesterday on my Corolla. They installed the previous set too and I did all the tire rotations on schedule: only Costco ever laid a wrench on those wheels. So I can prove they stripped the stud. I am having my local mechanic replace the broken stud and present Costco with the bill.
    Great video by the way.

    @dangusprime 11 месяцев назад +1

    Tip l just learned when doing this! When you are trying to seat the new wheel stud / lug nut stud, apply grease to the stud and the nut or whatever you are using, as well as to whatever surface that nut will be pressing up against. l realised this halfway through seating mine and the difference was absolutely insane! spent 10 minutes torqueing it at sketchy levels, which changed to the stud seating in like 5-10 seconds.
