1 Yes.
2 No.
3 No. They are "bolted" in. There was a recent post about removing lug studs.

Hope this helps.

Good question, gunmetal. Unfortunately rfj52 has no information in his profile.
EVERYONE: Please put at least some basic information in your forum user's profile. Basic information would include what trucks you have and where you are located.
