if they are push in studs then do as diuscokid says, if they screw in then lock 2 nuts together and screw out.

hilux 3rd is definately going in...Just waiting for Jac Mac to open to get axles.. and need to find someone to machine stubs

can't wait to get it on the road again.. the new ratios are also going to make a huge difference I reckon...

did not think about the 2 nut trick...
will keep posted on progress...

would not have a clue...have not spoken to them, as I only started on Friday and they are closed for the break.... a mate has a lathe so we will see how we go... but it might just be easier to send them the stubs

no idea when they open.
those prices were quoted when i enquired about the whole toy 3rd. conversion front and rear.
you have bought stuff, it may bring the price down.
