I meesed them up putting them in. I never took out the hub they were going in at an angle and the thread on the stud f***ed up.

Can you take a little more time and take the hub off and try it again?

Slow and steady usually wins the race. I'd try to do it properly the next time and avoid any more disasters :(

Great to hear, and since those pics are broken in the how-to thread it'd be real classy of you to take some new pics to replace them? :thumb:

Best of luck!
