Default Broken bolt

Have a problem. I got my tires rotated at Sears, they must have put one of the bolts back on off thread. I was trying to take off the tires to paint the rear drums and shear the bolt with the nut right off the axle. How do I get this fixed??

Thanks in advance if anyone here can provide help.

You can use a EZ Out. Pick it up at Sears. Buy another stud at a tire shop or dealer. Or put everything back together and take it down to a tire shop. They deal with broken studs all of the time.

You're okay driving with 4 studs - I'd go back to Sears, and point out that they were last to touch it - It's not a big cost and they should eat it.

I fully agree. My dealer replaced some on my Cruiser at no cost since they service it. Yes, I have a super Chrysler dealer.

Finally to recap this. I had to get the parts, like $3 for Sears to finally find the time to do it. Glad they had there BMW tech on board that day, he was quick, works part time for some extra cash, nice guy too.
