I broke the wheels studs off one side of the rear of my truck.The axles are moser with their 1/2inch screw in wheels studs..The rear end is a 8 3/4 with a 4.30sure grip,the rear wheels are weld prostars 15x12 with 31x16 tire.Any ideas on what to look for or any suggestions.The studs broke all at one time.I have all ways had trouble with the lug nuts backing off on the rear.Is there anything special I need to do with big tires?I am clueless on this
Small blocks rule!!!!!

I would think the wheel was loose a little to shear them off like that.... are your lug nuts the shoulder type... if so make sure they arent bottoming out before the wheel is really tight.... some are very close and you might think they are tight

ARP studs with extra long lug nuts
To me you dont need extra long nuts... anything over the diameter of the stud is just extra material and more tuning to get it off.... JMO
