Studs Come Off With the Lug Nuts

I was installing wheel locks yesterday and had two studs that backed off with the lug nuts on one wheel. Anyone have a quick fix for that?

Thanks for your help.

Did you try running the studs back in with some red loc-tite on them yet? If you do, and let it sit for a day, they shouldn't back out.

Thanks

I was thinking of a high grade of Loctite after cleaning the threads with brake cleaner. Just wanted to know if there might be another solution that I was not aware of. I think I will spend some time this weekend checking every lug nut/stud on the truck to be safe. Thanks for the help.
