Does anybody use this method or seen? Installing wheel studs

People who do that are to lazy to do it the right way, I dont suggest it.

ive done it that way before when i didnt want to replace the wheel bearing because it usually dont come out clean or if you dont have a press to press the hub out and back in

It just looks like you are trying to fuck something up to me. I would suggest doing it the right way.

Just remove the hubs and do it the right way, takes a little over an hour to do the whole car if you have the right tools...

Yea ive done 1 or 2 a while back but IIRC it was a bit of a bitch to get back in the hole. I know theres a spot on the hub that you have to turn where the stud will go in but just didnt know if anyone else has actually tried this.

Cause I agree it does look a little sketch thats why I asked

do you have oem or extended studs ?

OEM. They are for the front also not the back drums.

I've done it that way many times. Some makes already have the shoulder modified that way brand new. On a Honda, the torque spec is only 80 ft lbs so its not likely to pull through the hub anyways.

Okay so how the hell do I get the lug OUT? I dont remember the clearance being this bad on my EJ.

Component parts are designed to be installed, removed, and used in a certain way. When you do this as a shortcut, you are essentially compromising that component. :goodjob:


Hey, it's only holding your wheels onto the car, it's not THAT important, grind a little more off and use some hot glue to hold it on.:rolleyes:

Just remove the hub, Travis. It's not a difficult task. Just takes a lil bit of time. You can do it. I believe in you. lolol

You can get a press at harbor Freight for less than 100 dollars that will work to push out the bearings

It was the best 65.00 I think I have even spent at harbor freight
