When i was changing my winter tires to my summer tires, some how i broke my wheel stud while i was taking the rim off Does anybody have any idea of removing the wheel stud? Do i have to take the hub assembly out?

Called the Stealership and they said it would cost around $120 for 2 wheel stud replaced What a rip off. Previous owner had the hub bolt stripped for some damn reason so i might have to take it there Unless some one have a suggestion??!?

 

you can just take the hub off and take it to a shop to have pressed, or you can get ghetto like I did before and use a HAMMER!!!!

 

is it the front or rear studs that need replacing? the rears would be much easier since you would only have to remove the caliper, rotor, then the hub bolt and take the hub out. from there just hammer the damaged studs from the face of the hub.
If it was the front you would have to press the hub out of the knuckle to get the studs out. i learned the hard way hope that helps a lil

 

Its the front driver studs that need replaced. Yea i think i might have to be ghetto on this and hammer that out.
