  • Broken Bumper Stud

    Anyone else here ever experience the broken stud on the rear bumper? Y'know, the ones that are on the outside of the car, underneath, where all the crap from the road sprays up on 'em?

    Any thoughts on a fix for this? Right now I'm thinking I'll have to grind off the stump, and weld a new stud on.

    pretty much the only thing you can do.

    No spitters were I work, you swallow it all. The Company feels if you already have it in your mouth why waste it.

      Or just go with only 5 studs....and deal with the rattling that will almost invariably follow.

        I broke one of mine when I installed my trailer hitch. I'm on five nuts right now. My car, that is.

        No rattling so far. What would rattle, anyway?
