I swear there was a thread about some ARP longer studs for FD. but I can't find it.
Anyone know which part number for longer wheel studs.

And how to replace the front wheel studs? I don't see anyone posting this before, only DamonB for the rear studs experience.

Thanks-

 

Front studs are no problemo to replace. There's clearance behind the spindle so you hammer the old ones out and then use a spacer and a nut to pull the new ones in. No disassembly required and only takes a few minutes.

The rears as you know are a different story.

Sorry, don't know the ARP part number.

These work for FC's. They're the only 12mmx1.5 thread ones they have. I speak from personal experiance that these DO fit FC's.

 

One thing I didn't think of is that if the new stud is considerably longer than stock it may demand removal of the hub to install. On the front this just means removing the axle nut and pulling the hub. The rear demands removing the hub no matter what to replace a stud.

 

What is the length of stock ones? I am looking just about 3/4 inch longer than stock.

 

I can't remember how much clearance there is. Pull one of the front rotors and peak in there. That should give you an idea how long you can go but worst case all you'll have to do is pull the hub to install the longer studs.
