depends on how much you dislike work.

Without an air wrench, you would do EXACTLY the same thing, but once you have washers stacked on the stud, and get the lugnut threaded, instead of hitting it with the impact, you would start cranking away with your tire iron/4-way, or whatever you use to put on lug nuts... just keep checking it, and stacking washers and tightening the lugnut until it pulls the head of the stud flush against the back of the stud plate.

Let me see if I can find some pics to make it easier for ya, and then you can decide whether or not its worth the $50 to let someone do it.... (personally, I dont think so, since that stud will only cost you like $2, and about an hour of your time...)
