I just bought a set of wheels and tires and I installed them yesterday. Today the back left wheel fell off and I know it was due to about 8 months ago I broke 3 studs on my back left axle and I had replaced them with 3 studs off another jeep axle, bt these were shorter. Back to story the lugs didn't have enough stud to hold the wheel. Now I'm at a shop to have them replace the 3 studs with longer ones and the wheel is already off, they r trying to charge me $80 to replace 3 studs which when I changed them took me 5 min last time. What I want to know is how much should they charge for 3 studs, 5 lug nuts, and labor?

That sounds about right. Jeep studs are $6.00 each lug nuts are about $4.00 figure in .5 labor and thats about right.
