Re: How to remove and install new Lug Studs DIY
Drift punch them out, knock new in from behind, draw tight with all lug nuts, use larger nut or socket for spacer if no thread to bottom, remove lug nuts, install drum/rotor and wheel. When you are slipping the new studs through, move right and left to feel the splines align and tap in easy to start them first. Then smack them in tight. You can use a fat punch to knock them tight as possible, but I always do the lug nut thing from the front after. I now have a press but have not needed to replace any studs since buying
