I decided to install the new wheel studs tonight, before the Big Bear trip tomorrow.
It was going good until I figured out the new ones I had were too big. Of course I didn't figure it out until I had drove all the old ones out.
Off to Auto Zone. They didn't have any, but the store in Perris had two.
Down the street to O Reilly. They had none, but their store in Perris had two. Oh, their store in Moreno Valley had seven, and if I hurried, I could get there before closing.
All done now. I did learn that the Trail D Vice is not strong enough to press them in. I managed with a stack of washers and a wrench to take up space, and a standard type lug nut from a wheel spacers, then a star wrench to draw them in.
Finally done and ready to wheel in the morning.
