Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone thinks it would be possible to replace a single rear wheel stud without taking the disc off?

Its snapped cleanly only leaving the head in the hub. I was thinking about tapping this out and then just using the normal process of threading the new stud and tightening into place with a wheel nut.

Might not be possible but I am just under time constraints.

Cheers guys.

Hey Andrew.

I just went out and knocked a stud out of my old hub. Pretty easy to do on the ground. Not sure if you could do it with the disc on the hub though. I guess if you can get to it...

Change them ALL while you are at it mate.

I went through this same problem with a GTR Syline a while back, i ended up changing ALL of them to give me peace of mind ... i mean if ONE breaks, how far off are the others.

Was a bit of a pain in the ass i suppose but im sure they are still going strong wherever that car is now
