23290, Does anyone know this? Concerning studs...
Posted by LikeNoOther, Mar-29-04 06:11 PM
On my front drivers side wheel, 2 of my original studs broke off. I bought new studs, but i have never attempted putting them in. If anyone has attempted this before, knows of some sort of tech sheet, website, anything that will help me put the new ones in. I would appreciate it. thank you.

putting studs in are easy....2methods
1 remove the bearing and punt the stud in from the rear of the stud. this is probably the best way.

2 is put the stud in and tap it in with a hammer. get a 5-6 heavy washers and tighten the lug down
(no wheel on!)to pull the stud in. This works well most of the time but beware....this has backfired on occasion and damaged threads. me personally, I have done this on mine and lot of other cars. i have had it backfire and dully meadium duty trucks but that is a totally different set up. never failed on a Passenger vehicle.

Those are very good methods and they should both work, I've just pounded them in before and all is good
