[DeTomaso] Spinning wheel stud

[Larry Stock]

Dear Sean, and all Pantera Owners, please liberally use anti-seize on all
your wheel studs each time you take off a lug nut to avoid this situation.

What Sean will need to properly fix this is typically a new $700+ billet
axle & Bearing installation to properly cure his problem. Please take a
little more care and prevent the dilemma that Sean has endured.
