chees mid life crisis

it's ok fig it out

How did you do it? Please tell me. Bob jane stripped my rear one, and i cant take it back, coz i dont hav receit.

ok you dont have to take the hub off thats that makes it a lot easier

1 take wheel off

2 remove rear caliper just undo the 2 17 mm bolts and pull to one side

3 in the disc there are 2 holes with a thread in them about 10 mm i think find 2 bolts and screw in to the holes a little bit each side this will pull the disc of the hub . make sure handbrake is off

4 tap the damaged stud out with a hammer the stud will land amongst the handbrake assembly u might need a magnetic screwdriver to help dig it out

5 push new stud into the hole as far as you can . find a nut thats bigger than the thread and put over stud then put on wheel nut and tighten till the stud is in all the way remove wheelnut and nut

6 put disc back on then caliper and the wheel job done took me about 1/2 hr once i fig out how to do it stud cost about 5 bucks

hopes this helps

Good procedure man, I was trying to take the whole hub off, but this way is probably a lot quiker and easier. I had to replace 3 studs in the same hub because of dodgy tyre factories, and it took me about 45mins all up for removal of tyre, to calipers to disc, to studs and all back on again.

Trust me this way works good thanks man

:D
