wheel studs are evil

father joe · 02-27-2002, 09:57 PM

a little while ago i replaced two broken wheel studs. well in the last month that i've had them they have both come loose in the hub the first one i was able to get off in tact and jb weld it in place so it wouldn't spin when i took it off. now two weeks later my dad is grinding, drilling and hammering it out so now i have to get a new one but the good news is they only cost 99 cents a checker. so now im going to go buy my stud and attempt to fix my car for hopefully the last time this week. tell me about any repetitive things you've replaced in your old fords.

I prefer ARP studs, but they cost $14 for a set of 5, and require lug nuts with the ends removed. NHRA legal, though.

Take care,
-Chris
