Scoboblio Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 This may be a completely n00b question, but do you have to remove the front hubs in order to change the wheel studs? I'm having longer ones fitted and the answer to this will determine how much it'll cost....... And roughly how long does it take to do, with the proper machinery?

Jake Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Five minutes. They just push out. Takes longer to get the wheel off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 Really? I've been told it's a garage job due to needing specialist equipment!!!! Is it really worth paying someone else to do or is it just a "get your hands dirty" job? Thanks Jake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 If they're seized in and won't knock out you'll need a press of some sort. But they should come out OK usually. I'd have a go myself first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Ian, I just did a search to check what I told you. Have a read of this thread: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=45178 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 Cool, nice one, thanks again Looks like a much easier job than I've been told! Then again Toyota also told me it'd cost £420 + VAT to fit new calipers, disks, pads, lines and fluid Jake have you ever thought of writing a "how to search" guide? Every time I ask a question you get the answer on a thread I couldn't find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Jake have you ever thought of writing a "how to search" guide? Maybe I did. Do a search for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
