Wheel stud replacement

  • Sponsors (?)


Any machine shop can do this for you. I wouldn't charge you, but "they" might. It only takes about 30 seconds to remove, and another 30 seconds to install.
If you have a LARGE vise, that would probably work for you. You must use a socket placed over the stud head and against the rotor/hat/spindle assembly, and the other side of the vise pressing on the threaded end of the bad stud.
To install, just put the socket on the opposite side and press the "head" end of the stud into the rotor/hat/spindle assembly.

There are tiny splines which I suggest you align when installing the new stud into the hat section of the rotor.
