ok, one bad thing after another one, i was about to change my wheel cuz i had the spare tire on... blah blah blah, ok here was my 1st prob. when i was tryin to take the nuit out, bam snapted right off. so then i was like ok one i can leave with out it.... blah blah blah... there i tried the other one bam, another one came off i was like WTF so.... after all that here goes my question. Can i get the whole part from a previous cavalier? (( mine its a 2004 )) if so what part exactly do i have to get?
The wheel studs are cheap. Goto parts store and pick new ones up, also make sure to get lugs.
Big hammer to get them out, turn hub and align stud to get them out and on.
There is a write up somewhere on here just do a search on wheel stud replacment.
Took me 15 mins total to replace 2 last, that includes running to parts store to get new studs.
Yup. New studs are cheap, like $1 each or less. Definitely get new nuts to go with. Get a couple extra, because you will tear at least one up drawing the stud through the hub.
Still WAY cheaper than buying a new hub assembly.

Sleeper style, they don't see it coming that way.
are you running hub rings with your wheels? if not then thats your problem. hub rings take the weight of the wheel off the studs and center it on the hub. w/o the hub rings, the weight of the wheels are on the studs and its common for them to snap.
