Default Need help FAST!

So... long story short.

There were a couple holes in a tire of my old truck. Took the wheel off, plugged the holes and put it back on.

While tightening the nuts, the person on the wrench applied too much force and snapped the bolt.

Any clues?

What all is involved in repairing this, and how will I do it?

Needs to be done soon cause she's off the road till i fix the truck.

Punch out the broken one and then get a new one from any autoparts store slide it from the back of the wheel put a smaller nut as a spacerthen put the actual nut by hand once is a few thread on it take the gun and drive it in all the way and VOILA you'r done! hope it helps.
