I have made some temporary fixes in the dim past by wrapping high temperature
electrical tape (or any fabric type tape) around the splines with locktite.
The tape is then covered with locktite, and the bolts are pull into the hub
holes using lug nuts-- probably not a good idea, but seemed to work for me.
Super Shops in the Pittsburgh area seem to have the largest selection of
wheel studs that I have ever found during my past searches. These shops
might not be in your area.
