Today I replaced all 20 of my wheel studs with ones that are supposed to be immune to breaking.

New stud vs old snapped stud


After pounding out the old studs (which was surprisingly easy), I used a nut and a few washers to pull the new stud into the hub


While I was in there I noticed that the sway bar end link I replaced less than a month ago was already rusted to shit


I also decided to replace the Scion/86 badges that I painted with better ones. Original painted badge with the paint chipping off


New and improved badge


I kinda preferred the semigloss black of the badges I painted, but if these don't chip then I'll live with the matte
