DIY - Front Stud Removal and Remplacement 2005 Corolla

This is a DIY for a 9th gen Corolla/Altis or any type of Toyota 



You will noticed Toyotas most likely have notches - If you do NOT see a notch usually the whole hub has to be replaced on certain vehicles - 



This is the stud part number - With a sledge hammer knock out the broken or all the studs if you decide to add extended lug nuts or replacing worn out studs







With the Auto Zone stud I had to modify the back end of the stud by grinding a round edge because the store was flat as you can see in the photo - You don't have to go all the way around as long as you round the edge that is closest to the bearing - If you choose not to grind the edge then go to Toyota for the OEM studs 



Some how I found this version of lug nut and used it to pull in the stud - You can use a over size but as well 






DO NOT PUT ANY OIL OR ANTI SEIZE when installing a stud - Line up the little mark lines - Make sure the stud is straight - Make sure the flat edge you grinded is facing bearing and you have clearance - Try spinning the hub and listen for noises



With your breaker bar or air gun pull in the stud TIGHTLY 



Make sure stud is completely flat - Then you can put it all back together

DIY - Replacing Broken Rear Wheel Studs 2000 Infiniti I30

This is a DIY on how to replace broken rear wheel studs on a Infiniti I30 






Once you have the car on jack stands safely then you start by removing the rear brake caliper and the bracket then the rotor will slide off .




Once you have the rotor off then with a heavy hammer you can punch out the studs . If one or more broke you might as well replace them all on the one side while you are there .




With a impact or a torque wrench make some kind of buffer so that when you pull in the wheel stud that you have the back flush . If you need a flash light use it and make sure you see no cracks cause when you put the wheel on you want to make sure you have a true tightness . DO NOT USE ANTI SEIZE - You can see I used over sized nuts to fill in the space .  






Once you have them secure you might as well clean your brake hardware and grease them if you need rear brakes now is a good time to replace them take advantage of this situation while you have your car apart .


Then put everything back .

Check in a week to make sure lug buts are tighten .
