What is the best way to change the studs in the front of my integra some people say you have to remove the hub and I hear that you don't thanks for any advise

TheAsian

Yes you need to remove the steering knuckle and press the hub out. You wont have clearance any other way

ZOOYOST

remove wheel
remove caliber
remove rotor
remove axle nut
insert slap hammer (pound away)

vise put hub tighten down
tighten lug loosely to stud smack it loose.
remove lug once loose and slip stud out. (so stud doesn't fly)

fyi put the stud in the freezer

air hammer

once done

slap hammer back on the studs
pound away again
put axle bolt back on to drawl in hub to wheel bearing.
once tight rotor and calibur and wheel.


*aftermarket stud* might have to grind down the stud so i doesn't rub.

TheAsian

how did you find clearance?

ZOOYOST

mildly slap it back on twist the hub around if it touches then grind it. the skunk2 extended on eg and dc you must grind the stud towards the hub. plus grease them
