Rear diff stud spins. Fix it help?
So the rear third member has been out of my 4runner many times this year. On the last time one of the studs just started spinning when I tried to tighten the nut down on it.
Does anyone know how these are held on the back side? How the "best" way is to fix these?

What is the best way to remove the studs? If the holes are threaded I guess hammering them back and out like a lug stud on a wheel would not be advisable.

they are threaded, 2 of my studs come out when i pull my third and put it back in....
but the bolt is seized to it so i just tighten down the whole stud, i have tried red loctite but that didn't work at separating the stud from the nut....

I saw the pics of the allen bolt threaded in, but I wanted to make sure to have a thread kit ready if in reality they expect me to actually drill out the hole where the stud was, thread it, then put the allen bolt in it. Thats much more of a pain in the ass.
Thanks guys! I appreciate the knowledge!
