They make all sorts of tools for this you may need to check out some sites and find what your specific application will need. In short here's what I would do first check to see if they a press fit? If they are who'll have to remove hub and have the studs pressed out. No big deal just time consumming. If they have treads first try some liquid wrench or anything like that to loosen the studs, let it soak for a couple of hours. Grab any part of the stud with vise grips to turn, if the stud is to short to grab, you might have to drill into the center of the stud about 3/16 just enough for a tool called easy outs, the pointed end of the tool is to be tapped into the hole (use a small hammer for this) and turn the stud out. The tool has a reverse grip so when inserted into a hole it grips as it turnned out.  I have used ridgids extractors before and they work very well. Good luck

I need some advise. I have 2 stud on the left rear wheel that snapped off while I was trying to take the wheel off. These are the studs (not lug nuts) the screw into the Hub. They have a lip made on then to I assume seat the wheel on to the hub correctly. The studs broke off in front of these lips so the wheel is still on the hub even after I take the 3 other studs completely out. Does anyone have any advise as how I can get these 2 studs out?
 
Thank You,

In addition on mine last mail:If the window is crashed at the upper part, and is stocked between therubber, and/or the guide u profile inside the door, there is also apossibility that the current from the motor come to high and the fusewill blow.That is properly the reason if the window- switch will not operate.But first you had to correct the alignment from the window and thenreplace the fuse.First pick-up the stopper at the bottom off the door compartment. Let someone else operate the window switch , and help with your bodypower to lower the window to the bottom.Then you can mount the stopper at its original place, and should theproblem be gone.REMEMBER THAT SOMETIMES THE FUSE ARE BLOWN WITHOUT THAT YOU CAN SEE THATTHE LEAD IS BURNED AWAY.So replace the fuse to be sure.The window has only an fuse ; an switch, an (roof command) relay, and amotor. The rest is wiring, so there can not be a  very difficultproblem. The relay and switch are connected parallel.Success.Jan

You can reach it after remove the cover.If the nut of on  stopper is come loose, and the stopper fall down inthe door compartment, the window  Will be turned a little bit at the end and come higher then normally. Ibelieve the window is now clamped between the rubbers and the door, andwill not be able to go down. If the window will not move , the bottomswitch will not operate and the roof will not work.Jan Kuylaars , in the naburhood from the first twister in my lifetime inHolland.

You only need topush the red button backwards or forwards a little way and both windows should start to lower. Once half way down, reverse what you are doing with the red button and see if that changes anything.If that doesn't work, maybe one of our resident electronics experts can suggest a 'reset' solution (you have, of course, checked the fuses !!)George SimpsonCognacwilliam hughes wrote:
