Are you talking about the caliper mount bolt, where the mount bracket bolts up to the knuckle, or the one from the caliper to its bracket?

What number is it in this picture?

#15 is the bolts that hold the caliper to its bracket. It is on the back side of the caliper.

#19 is the bracket to knuckle bolt

Surely you arent talking about the wheel stud itself, that holds the tire on. #20.

Yeah it is. It isnt advisable to beat and bang on it with a hanner.

You will need to use whats called a wheel stud clamp to get it off with. I will try and see if I cant come up with a photo. Its got prongs on one side, king of like a balljoint/ tie rod seperator, and a cupped pusher for the clamp to push the stud out with.

you could try and get 2 nuts that will fit on the stud and put the first one 3/4 down the stung and the second tightly up against it and with a wrench on the back nut spin the stud out

The stud isn't screwed into the hub, it is pressed.

The stud has splines around the outside part of the bottom of the stud. If you try that, and spin it out of the hub, you will only wallow out the bore in the hub. Then, you wont be able to replace the new one.


See what it is I'm talking about?
