Help. Trouble with installing arp wheel studs in the rear
I got longer wheel studs to istall on teh rear. they are Arp. I took teh wheel off, took the brake and brake disk off. Unscrewed the nut that is holding the rear axle and I still cant pull out the plate where the studs stay. I cant tow the car because the stock studs are knocked out. has anyone done this and I would need some help on how to do it. thanks.
It is all pressed in. I would go up to step 8 and then bring it to a machine shop to have the press out the hub and press in the new studs. If you have not realized yet, you will have to replace the wheel bearings.
