broken wheel stud

(1/3) > >>

mick:
Took the beast out last weekend and had a bit of fun with an evo 8.

When I got home i had a missing lug nut and the remainder of the thread still intact, ever done this before.

I dont think it will be much hassle to fix, I never had to change one out before.

Any advice fom people who have had to change these before.

Thanks

Mick


Just to clarify the stud is broken off at the base of the thread.

87Z51:
You can just punch it out the back of the hub and replace with new.
Ideally it should be back pressed in but  you can pull a new one in using  spacers and a wheel nut if you line the splines up

MADLT1:
ideally you should replace the other 4 aswell,as they are weaker now;46

mick:
Thanks Guys!!!! I'll do that   ;42

Scott:
Front or rear? I don't think there is enough room to remove the studs and install new ones on the rear without pulling the stub axles.
