[QUOTE="ORVietVet, post: 26672, member: 9438"] I found out that the lug studs and/or lug nuts, with the tin caps, get rust build up under them and swell the tin cap. I arranged for a trusted shop that I send work to that I do not want to do, has dealt with this and I found out there is special impact sockets that are .5mm sizes. Example, the tech has 19.5mm impact socket to deal with this. They are gonna use her supplied parts, that I found, and is gonna swap out all the capped lug studs, replace the front Mopar pads/hardware and Mopar rotors and allow my military discount and do it all for $165. I searched and found that Snap On, Mac Tool and Matco and SK do not make these .5mm sockets. I did find a set from CTA Tools and no more than I would use them and for $67, I bought them at Amazon. It will be a "just in case" thing. [/QUOTE]
