    You will be fine for a while. Dont drive to fast and make sure the others are torqued.

    Is the stud broken or is it just the lug nut? If it is just the nut, no prob. You can just screw another lug nut on. If it is the stud, don't wait. I would get it repaired ASAP. It is not recommended to drive with less than 80% of your lug nuts torqued on each wheel. Though it is rare for anything to happen; something could.

    the part is maybe $2 and about 2 hours worth of work

    Had a couple broke on the 240 when i got it


    once u get the new stud thru somewhat put three washers on it and the throw the lug nut on there and tighten it till it is all the way seated
