Default Replacing wheel stud

Has anyone replaced a wheel stud on a 4th gen (or other gens if they are comparable?) While doing a tire rotation today I found that someone has tried to steal my wheels at some point judging by distinct damage to my lug nuts. In the process of taking the last wheel off, I broke a wheel stud off in a lug nut. I was the last person to have the wheels off of the truck and therefore was the last person to reinstall them. I never use an impact and wouldn't have forced a cross-thread. The only thing I can come up with is rust-welding (highly unlikely) or maybe damage from someone trying to hammer a socket onto the nut.

Either way, I now need the procedure and part number (if possible) for changing the front wheel stud. Thanks for any help.
