    Hey 1st Gen Tacoma Brothers,

    My buddy Sean and I have another video for you. I helped my friend Paul yesterday replace a broken wheel lug nut stud on this 5th Gen 4runner. Even though it was done on a 5th Gen 4runner, the technique we used would work for a 1st Gen Tacoma as well.

    This is a pretty simple, non-mind-blowing video but maybe it will help somebody out who's dealing with a broken lug nut stud.

    Heres' the video and Enjoy the Show!

    Thanks. I wish mine was the clean. I dont imagine mine going so well.......the bracket bolt will be challenging. Its so rusty it will likely just snap. ......the abs sensor.....forget it. Ill give it a shot though. Im going to see if i can get things loose before pulling it all apart. This looks very straight forward. I have done them on other vehicles before and had no issues but these trucks rust like hell and that is what i have to contend with. I had a 1969 jeepster commando survive 35+ minnesota winters and not be this rusty. I dont get why they cant get proper steel or seal the stuff they do get. Wish me luck and thank you for the great video.
