Currently only have 1 1/2 wheel lugs on my front left hub. Local garage basically said, "Duh, I don't know."

I heard ya' need some special tool to pull the hub- What is it?

Could anyone give me a detailed write up on how to swap in some new wheel lugs?

tried searching, no useful info.

 

I think you have to press out the hub... but I'm not sure...

as far as studs.. you should be able to hammer them out and get the new ones in... but I'm not positive... OK I checked the manual.. (92-95) and it says you do have to press out the front hub but I've heard of people doing it w/o one.

Also there MIGHT be enough clearance to hammer them out with out removing the hub... but that's not your best option.

 

How do you remove the hub?

 

yes i have a similar problem i only have 3 lugs on my front left wheel and i have a new stud to put in but i dont know hoe to get the old one out ... i really want to reaplce this ASAP because the track will not allow me to race if i have any missing studs they clain its a safety issue... any help would be greatly appreciated..

Seperate the hub from the knuckle using the special tools and a press...

good luck.. if you didn't get that I can email or file transfer you the manual in pdf.

 

The the wheel lugs be replaced without hub removal?

Can the old lugs be knocked out with a punch and dead-blow. And, with the new ones can you use a spacer of some sort with the nut to pull the lug through??

Need help!!!! Got only two lugs at the moment
