Extended Lug install question
Do you have to press the hubs off to install extended studs on and eg? They look like they might clear.. Anyone have any insight? Thanks!

this link helps.
I just did mine. fairly easy. i didnt change my wheel bearing and its still good. just rent a sliding hammer and you are good to go. the rear is really easy.

I did mine without pressing out the hubs.
1.) Remove rotors/calipers.
2.) Get a big hammer and bang the old ones out.
3.) Grind down the edge of the end of the studs so they will clear the backing.
4.) Get some washers and put them over the stud and then put on the lugnut and pull it through with an impact gun to get it in all the way.
5.) Spend the two hours you just saved doing it this way and go cruuuuusin.
Ive heard this way only works with EG's because they have a notch in the hub so the new ones will clear.

Re: Extended Lug install question (eg crunkmonster)
Thanks for the link! That helps alot.. I didnt even think about using a slide hammer. 
I do actually need to pull the hubs.. I forgot that I have new hubs that came with my DSS stage 5 axles.

yah they will fit, that is why u just need to grind down the side a little bit on the endtab.

good info, you just saved me lots of time. thanks. Also, ive heard its recommended to spot weld the back of the stud. Is that really necessary?
