- I have not done this on my Alpine, but replacing a stripped/busted lug bolt is pretty straight forward (assuming it is a press-in application, and not a screw-in style). You should take the drum off

- Using my "gorilla" strength...I tore it off with my bare hands! I was looking at my rear suspension and noticed one of the brake wheel cylinders loose because the clip wasn't in position so I though
