I need to get some extended studs installed and was wondering how much a shop would charge to have them installed?

Also, while googling, i found that many people said when you replace the studs you must replace the wheel bearing? Is this true even when i have it professionally done at a shop?

If anyone knows any shops in socal that can install for cheap please let me know!

 

For the fronts, you must replace the wheel bearings when installing extended studs, because of removal of the hub the bearing separates and is destroyed. I paid $100 for pressing a new bearing in the front hub and installation of new extended studs. Advise that i had removed the front knuckle and just had the machine shop press new bearings and studs.

For the rear I purchased new hubs (which come with bearings) and just had the studs pressed in. Advise that you will need new axle nuts, cotter pins for the front upper/lower balljoints and a cotter pin for the tierods.

 

If you are close to Pasadena, I have the tools to do ball joints, wheel bearings, and studs.
