Re: how to replace broken lug bolts?

You need to disconnect the axle inside the differential and slide it out. Make sure you have a tube of RTV and 3 quarts of 75w140 synthetic gear oil. Take the diff cover off, remove the bolt in the carrier that holds the retainer pin in (use an 8mm or 5/16" 6-point socket or box wrench), and slide the pin out. Push the axle in enough to remove the C-clip, then slide the axle out. The lug nuts should be torqued to 100 ft-lbs.

Basiclly same thing. Is yours front or back. Also posting in the appropriate forum would be a good idea. There are more people that know your car in the Hyundi forum.
