Re: WHEEL STUDS

Front or back ? .Both the same really , take off the wheel take two bolts out the caliper and lift the caliper out of the way so you can pull off the disc/rotor You don't need to undo the brake fluid line. . Now just tap the studs with a hammer and they should come out the back of the hub. Fit the new one you can pull back into the hub using a big nut over the stud and a washer then use the wheel nut to pull back in the hub . Refit the brakes and your done. Recheck the wheel nuts after a few ks
