I made the mistake of overtightining my lugs before autox a couple weeks ago. (used impact ) I went to take off my wheels and broke 3 studs. Others are ok, but streched a bit making it hard to put on and take off. What size is the spindle nut for 94 rs. I will need to replace all my studs and lugs I think.

you are gonna have fun with that might want to have a few

 

Ya, I already fought with one stud on the rear, got it in without taking out the hub, it took lotsa

 

i found that you can do it without removing the hub by pounding them out at the bottom and turning the wheel to get each stud at the bottom and install is reverse of removial

 

How good is that for the bearing? (Sounds like it's "not very" to me.)

there is no way to take studs out on front hubs if u don't take it off.

 

My mechanic getto rigged it for me I was unaware the need to press out the hub from the rest of the assembley.....disparing spending 100 (CDN) on new bearings and shop time to press, we used 2 blocks of wood and carfuly tapped out the hub using hammer and large brass punch. It came out fine, installed new studs and carfully and using a large socket and the wood, tapped the hub back in, bearings are OK!!!!!
