my girlfriend has a 95 civic 4-door LX. her front lug bolts are stripped. does anyone know how/if the bolts can be removed without removing the rotor? i know on older cars you could turn the rotor to a certain position and hammer them out the back of the rotor. can something similar be done here?

 

u will have to take out the rotorand bang them out the hub assembly. u might have to move da knuckle to da side

 

btw its called the stud

You'll have to press out the Hub from the knuckle/spindle.

 

that's what i was afraid of, thanks guys

 

Naw dude....you should be able to beat the studs out of the front hub!

 

does the rotor have to be turned a certain way to bang out the studs?

 

damn I hate when you have to move DA knucke to DA side
