Wheel Stud Help!
Hey everyone, ive run into some trouble and hope someone can bail me out. I just got some nice new wheels for my civic, but i am having one hell of a time getting them on! First one of the studs on my front passenger wheel wont tighten. The threads are not stripped but the stud just spins in the whole like the backside is stripped. Second one of the rear driver side studs broke. How difficult is it to go about fixing this? The local dealership quoted me 2 hours labor plus pats to fix the front one. I did a search and found that the "rear is easy, front has to be pressed" but can anyone elaborate?? Thanks!

Re: Wheel Stud Help!
If iam correct from my experience to do the front if u
access to any air tools and a slide hammer u can knock
it out in a hour it is rather easy but u might need a new
hub if yours is striped any ways your air gun serves as
the press the dealer ship was talking about goodluck hope i could help

i would maybe try to find the part on your own, and take it to a compentent mechanic to install for you. installing without a press can and will severely shorten the life of the bearing!
