angeljoelv... regardingz about the wheel hubs that broke... is it possible that if u hoist the car with the hoist machine with the one that leaves all the 4 wheels hanging.... and if u leave it there that long, it might have put that much stress on the screws till it finally gave way?

No, the only weight on the studs would be the weight of the wheels at that point. To put that much stress it would have to have the load of the car. good try though
