Title: Front Wheel Stud Replacement question, (hello everyone again)
Post by: bashzuk on January 06, 2006, 07:37:25 PM: Just went to les schwab to have a tire balance and one of my front wheel studs is busted.

I did a search and found out the size I need but I am looking for good instructions on replacing the wheel studs.

Anyone have blow by blow instructions on how to replace a front wheel stud?

Do a search for wheel and studs at Ack's FAQs (the link is in my signature, below)

Hope this helps!

Did just what you said.......the stud backed out 1/2 inch and ran into the I think gear/sensor wheel for the ABS system......so I suppose i have to remove the wheel bearing and everything else?
