Broken wheel studs

Post by Grantw »

To cut a long story short I have boken 4 of the 6 wheel studs on the drivers rear side. How easy are these to replace? Is it as simple as removing the hub and replacing them?

That sucks!

I don't know the answer, but I may need it soon. I had all 4 wheels off on the weekend, and one stud felt a little spongy as I tightened them again. :cry:

Good luck,

Scott

I'm pretty sure you can remove the brake calliper, cage and disc rotor then tap the old stud out and using a wheel nut pull the new one in. I think if you have ABS this may cause a problem as the pick up ring gets in the way.

Hope this helps
