I actually had a front wheel on my 1992 F-150 that I JB-welded on. ?The
wheel was making really weird noises, and I found that three of the five
studs were broken, and that the wheel was held on with two studs and two
nuts (out of five). ?I didn't want to have new studs pressed in ($$$), so
I
just put on lots of JB weld and tightened down the two nuts. ?I did it in
the evening and let it sit overnight before driving it.

Maybe you'd better have the $tealer$hip replace that chain and
masterlink you
boogered up after all...

Then swear off doing any kind of mechanical work for the rest of your
life, just stick
to factoring prime numbers.

Nobody ever hurt themselves factoring prime numbers...

I was just messing with you (of course).

I would not really JB Weld a wheel.

I suppose he thought I was serious also...sheesh and I thought I was
the dumb one around here because I couldn't google answers like
Krusty.
