I broke a wheel stud for the first time

Never had this happen to me, doesn't look fun to replace.

Its a little more involved on the 84-85 trucks then it is on the 86 and newer.

Why is that? They both have a hub that has to be removed from a spindle, and then the rotor removed from the hub. What else is there to make if more involved?

Lack of neversieze or using a 6' foot pipe on a 3/4" breaker bar??

i've broken lots of them just snugging them down.

You're right. For some reason I was thinking the 86 and newer trucks were as easy as the 2wd's?? Blame it on this

I had to remove those locking nuts on one of my trucks. I welded a nut to the lug nut and they came right off.
