Well i need to replace one of my broken studs on my passenger rear side. Ive done it on a fwd drive car before but never a rwd car. Is their any thing different i need to do in order to get it out? The way i was thinking is
Remove wheel
Remove caliper
Remove rotor
Hammer out old stud

Remove knuckle, press out bearing.

There is no room at all to remove the rear studs on an S2000 unless you press it apart.

I have yet to check the situation on the front of the car.

i learned that the hard way. i tried 2 c if stud could b removed but looks like the hub has 2 b removed first

fyi I had a rear wheel stud break over the weekend and was able to replace it only having to remove the brake caliper and the rotor. It is possible believe it or not but only with a stock length stud.

With what a magic wand? There is no room. You would need to grind off some of the stud, or slide the hub out some. I'm sure you could grind away parts, but that is something I wouldnt do.

Required triming about a square inch piece out of the dust shield and grinding the stud into a D shape but it worked. Everyone claimed it to be impossible im just stating its not i did it.
