extended wheel studs install

Hatcher · Post by **Hatcher** » March 05, 2004

I just bought some extended wheel studs and want to install them. I was told I would need a 32mm axle socket and chisles, will I need anything else? also how long would you say this install takes? any advice for doing the fronts? I dont have rear brakes so the backs shouldnt be hard. I just bought some black volk GR-NRS's so I want to put those bad boy's on. thanks

this has nothing to do with your stud topic, but who did you buy the volks from? i traded mine awhile back and from what i understand, the guy i traded with is a real wheel whore.

I've replaced a few wheel studs on several different cars, never had to loosen the axle nut or touch a chisel. I just drive out the old one with a hammer and pull the new one through with a lugnut, simple as that, let us know how it turns out, I may have to do this soon...

Just get yourself a B.F.H and beat on the old ones like koto said.

One question...you got extended studs for the rear too?

how do I get the hub off? do I just pry it off with a screw driver and hammer?

Don't take it off, just drive the studs out on the car. It's easy.

If you can get the studs out with it on the car that's so damn easy. If you'd take the hub assembly off then you'd have all of the balljoints to contend with, etc. it would move around when you're trying to hit it, etc.
