I was taking my rear wheel off of my 90 Accord LX when I realized that a lug nut would not come off. I got three of the 4 off of the stock rim but the fourth lug kept turning and turning. So I've come to the conclusion that the wheel stud is stripped. Soo how do I take my wheel off and when I do how do I replace the wheel stud?

Thanks,
Dennis

 

With the other lugs removed, have someone pull the wheel outward while you turn the 4th lug. With them pulling out and you turning, the lug should be able to catch a few good threads and work its way out.
Buy a new wheel stud from a dealer.
With the wheel off, pop off the rear axle nut cover with a screw driver. Unspike the rear axle nut and remove it. Now you should be able to pull off the entire hub by hand. With the hub removed, use a big hammer to pound out the bad stud, then pound in a new stud. Reverse procedure to reinstall the hub.

 

that doesnt sound too horrible. I was thinking of getting the skunk2 studs because I wish to run spacers.

 

Yes I have the Skunk2 studs (thanks Misa!) they are very nice.

 

Thanks Dave. You're a wealth of information!! I'll give it a shot!
