Very firstly I am not even sure where to post this, either diff's, wheels, or general and I will proceed to explain why. I have a 2005 BF xr6 turbo ute. I had an issue with the wheel nuts coming off Saturday night whilst driving on the freeway in Brisbane, and my wheel came off. In the process I snapped 1 wheel stud clean, and bent the other 4. I have since tried to read guide after guide but none of them are describing the issue I have. One of the guides I read on here states just to drill a hole in the dust plate and you can tap the studs back through the hole. But in my case, I can completely remove the dust plate but my problem is the anti skid sensor ( at least that is what I think it is ). My studs cannot slide back due to a silver disc behind the studs trapping them in. I have found on an American youtube vid the guy talks about removing the diff cover, and inside the diff is a circlip. Remove the circlip and you will be able to slide the entire left axle shaft out which will have the 5 studs on it. Once fully removing the left shaft you can tap back the studs. Is this correct ? Has anyone ever removed the studs on a 2005 bf xr6 turbo ute ? Any info or help would be much appreciated as I am at a stale mate right now. Here are some pictures of my progress. You can clearly see from different angles how my studs are blocked in.
