Default has anybody replaced a stud?

i spent all day on this with hammers and everything and i can't for the love of god get the broken stud out, let alone get the new one in. basically, search says it's possible to do for one broken stud, but might as well just remove the hub if you have more than one broken.

has anybody done this before? if you can do this for me in a timely fashion tomorrow please pm me and how much you'd like to be compensated for your time.

i'm in Arcadia

thanks
-Kevin

edit: or if anybody knows any shops in this area that can do it on a saturday, that would be great too!!

front or rear? im pretty sure you have to do the whole shibang if its for the rear (ie. press a new bearing in, uninstall hub, etc)

whacking the hub with a hammer is never a good idea, you'll do more damage then go ghetto ragging it.

just go to a shop and have it pressed out before you fwak the bearing too

you have to take the whole thing apart.. this isnt a diy this time as long as u dont have a press... sorry. ur going to need to buy a new beating as well and have that pressed in to because when they/u seperate the hub.. the bearing is going to fall out.

dont take short cuts, just get it done. the job is going to cost about 150 all together.. sucks because the stud is like 5 bucks.

best bet is to fine a used knuckle.



if u have a hard time finding a shop..... pm me. the shop i used charged 45 to press and repress the new stuff in.. just bring them the parts.

Kevin, that'd be (hopefully) the cheapest option if you can find it used. Installing it would be a lot easier as well, and not a lot of labor involve.
