nut or stud? front studs are easy to fix from what i hear.. you might be able to find it at napa for about 2 bucks each if its the stud..

you'll need to replace the stud on the front wheel hub. if you have the right tools you can change them in about 10~15 minutes :banana:

i've done a write up on this forum so if you do a search you'll find it

fronts are easier than the back.. and jon's write up helped me. jus gotta pound the crap out of the old stud out... and tightening the new one on by myself was tough.
Peaty's had a trick of freezing the new bolt so it's easier to go in... add that to the steps.
