Default Recessed / busted WHEEL STUD! help!

I thought one of my rear wheel studs was busted off, but I think it may all be there, just somehow it got pushed in.... From what I can tell I have the Dana 35 and I have rear drums. anyone have expereince replacing wheel studs? Is it as simple as removing the drum and popping it back in or does the whole axle have to come out?

its easy just pop the drum off and its right there and you should be able to just pull the stud back out its that easy and when you torque your stud down it should fix itself back into place if not its still not a big deal just read up on it

thanks man, I was hoping that was all it was.... that'd be a helluva pain to pull an entire axle just for a wheel stud
