    The truth is somewhere in the middle.

    It's not that hard to change, but it's gonna take you a while if you haven't done it before,

    If it was my truck and my life, I'd probably drive it tomorrow, unless I had an easy backup vehicle, on which case I'd take that.

    With only 5/6, and having just changed em, I'd check tightness at 25 to 50 miles.

    holy crap, remember the old bendix comercials, where the guy was in the parking garage and say's "if you don't use bendix brakes, we'll, this could happen to you". then he floors it into a concrete pillar. haha that shit was funny.

    dude, you'll be fine. just don't take any corners at mach5 or go 4 wheeling and your all set, unless more of them are loose/cracked/broke.

    On my last long wheeling trip I drove from NJ to NC with 5 lugs. I didn't know until one of the NC members noticed. Luckily I had extra so I just threw on one, but I was good doing 80mph for 9hrs strait. Guess I forgot to tighten that one :D
