The Lug nut got 'stuck' while removing from the bolt. The end result was the bolt twisted and broke in half. How do I remove the broken bolt and replace.

Simple Job.

Remove tire. Remove Brake caliper and mounting bracket for caliper. Turn tire until the stud moves around to opening created by removing the caliper. Use hammer on broken stud to push though. Caution should be taken to keep the broken stud from falling behind the dust guard.

Installing is even easier because of the new longer stud.
