bushnut Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 whats the best way to remove rear wheel studs, I've got one broken (right rear) and one striped (left rear). PO must have been a ham fisted boob. I was gonna rotate my wheels today but I'll have to deal with this first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor636 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I threaded a open lugnut (or just a nut) until it was flush with the stud. Then I hammered. Was this the correct way? Not sure but it certainly worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeraedave Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 You may be able to push it out with a stout c-clamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushnut Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 thanks guys I think i'll try the hammer trick first, I just got a new BFH (big effin hammer)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelord Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Stop! Its Hammer Time! Heh, had to do it. Yep, BFH is the way to go. As Trogdor said, using a nut on the end helps with it too. Plus having a washer and open ended is needed to draw the new one on. Use grease and be very liberal with lube to get the new one to pull on.
