Repacing wheel studs

I have a pair of 15mm H&R hubcentric spacers to fit to the fronts, which will require the standard studs being replaced with the longer studs that are supplied with the spacers.

 

How easy to fit? :P

Which car are these for?

Oerrrrr..the Tubby :P

Should be ....... wheel off, caliper off, carrier off, disc off, then the drive flange with studs should be visible. Look to see if the studs will pass the hub? if they do then hammer them out, if not then the 'flange' will need to be removed, but this will split the bearing so this will also need to be replaced.

 

Assuming the studs will pass the hub then the re-build is easy.... all studs have a spline fitment, so the new studs only need to be 'pulled' back into the flange, best method is to offer the stud 'loose' from behind, place a spacer over the exposed thread and use the wheel nut on the stud to pull it through, the spacer is a must! since the thread does not cover the whole length of the stud.
