So I have a 1993 gs300 and i got 24mm spacers on the back im trying to remove for 10mm ones. Reason is because i got wider wheels so i can pull off the wheels but not the spacer. 2 studs are NOT stripped they seem like they are not seated. So when I go to loosen the lugnut on the spacer the stud spins freely with the lugnut. I have this problem on Rear Studs only. What im asking is how do i go about fixing this issue? By the way the studs were replaced before with 1998 toyota tacoma studs because they are a bit longer then oem gs300 ones. they were seated and welded on for security. i have a total of 3 studs i need to either replace with Tacoma ones or possibly just reweld? Buckys will not replace my studs for Tacoma studs only OEM ones. I cannot go back to oem ones because the hub was drilled to fit this Tacoma ones in the first place.. PLEASE any input advice anything will help.. BTW I was able to remove the lug nuts on the 2 of the 3 studs that are not seated properly I cannot get one out.

had the same issue on my S13....youre most likely gonna have to reweld it? is the nut still torqued all the way down?

Got the lug nut off today i think the splines are stripped so i can pull the spacer off i put alot of JB weld on the back and front hopein that will fix this issue. any opinions? if not should i just buy toyota tacoma studs put them in and then tac weld it maybe?
