Hello,

One of my wheel studs broke, so I pounded the broken piece out, but now i'm not sure how to put the new stud in. The brake disc shield is in the way...so does this mean that I have to remove the entire hub assembly? Is there a way around this? That is a lot of work just to replace the stud...any suggestions?

I think the only way to replace it is to remove the rotor and all. It sucks I know I had to go through it.

Welcome to NICO!

You should be able to rotate the hub around to access the stud opening. It's been a long time since I did this. I replaced mine with the NISMO extended wheel studs.
