Default Dear Orlando Jeep Club...

Thank you to every single one of you who drive past me on your way to the beach as I sat with 5 sheared lugs.

It's not their fault you didn't tighten your lug nuts thus shearing off your studs , But it was a little bit of a **** move for them not stopping also.

I wish it was my fault, but no it's no there's. Last time I had it at the local tire shop they over tightened all my lugs. They seized 6/20 lugs. So the studs were cracked, evident by rust inside the stud where it broke. But yeah, as I sat there in the middle of the road having to use a tiny jack and pull my rotor replace all 5 studs and set them by hand, 8 or so lifted and "built" Wronglers drove past me and stared. When I finally got to the beach I saw them and they all waved. No, no there were 20+ of them at the beach. I guarantee with help and a real jack and tools could have been done in 20 minutes. Ahhhh... Okay, done venting.
