No super glue...haha.anyway not too smat for too long but if you check them(remaining three)evryday it should not be too bad.It should not cost very much to get the stud removed and replaced.On a side note not to scare you for the next time you go flying but there are only three bolts that hold on a boeing 737 engine.........:eek:

You can buy the studs for about $3-5 each, a mechanic usually charges $25labor per stud.

On my old car ( '91 240sx ) I broke off one of the lug bolts on my front wheel and I drove with only 3 lugs forever. I never had any problems. Just make sure the other 3 are on there real good ;) but I wouldnt worry about it unless another one comes off :p

A UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter is held together with 1/2 inch castlated bolts and cotter pins. :rolleyes:

I still highly recommend you have it fix. You don't want to see a wheel that looks familiar runs faster than your car one day! ;)

No, I don't fix choppers. I used to ride in them all the time when I was stationed at Ft. Campbell. Now I just blow shit up.

u should be ok on 3 lugs, i rode on 3 lugs on 2 wheels for 5 months on a 94 hatch and was ok. but u should fix it as soon as u get a chance, the dealer charged me $50 but a local shop will do it for $25.
