they are super easy to replace. You must have cross threaded the old ones. you would have to REALLY over tighten them to break them. But anyway all you really do is remove the rotors and hammer out the old stud. If not enough stud left to hammer use a punch or something. insert the new stud and put a lug nut on it and tighten it down to draw the stud through. you may have to usa a few washers under the lug nut as there may not be threads all the way down. make sure you dont cross thread it or over tighten it again. and you should be good.

I figured I'd bring this back from the dead since its right on point for me.
fg2!kid and Jimmy, is the procedure you described meant for any car in general or an 8th gen specifically? I ask because I wanted to install my spacers/studs last night, but it looked as it there wouldn't be enough clearance to remove the old stud and fit the new one it due to a bulge in the hub behind the flat surface that the studs go through. Does this mean I'd need to remove the whole hub assembly? Also, once I remove the oem studs, can I reuse them in the future if I ever sell the spacer/stud set? Thanks in advance guys, Pete. |

If you can find one or rent one, you will need a slide hammer. That will allow you to move the hub away from the knuckle without actually removing it completely. If you can't get a slide hammer, then you will need to remove the entire knuckle and have the hub pressed out, preferably only as much as necessary. And, you could possibly re-use them, but I wouldn't. They're meant to have a tight fit which becomes somewhat distorted after they are pressed in (from the factory) and then removed. It's just like a ball joint. Basically, you can replace a ball joint like one time, and after that, you need to replace the entire control arm because it won't fit tightly anymore. Press fits will do that. Last edited by The Power of Dreams; 07-03-2009 at 02:44 AM. |
