Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting the installation, verify that the `M12 x 1.5` thread, `12.8mm` spline diameter, and `10mm` spline depth match your existing parts exactly.
- Remove the brake drum or disc assembly to access the hub.
- Use a hammer or hydraulic press to knock out the damaged studs.
- Insert the new studs into the hub holes from the back.
- Use a wheel nut and washers to pull the stud into its final seated position against the hub face, or use a professional press tool for best results.
- Ensure the stud head is flush with the hub.
Regular maintenance involves checking your lug nuts for proper torque levels periodically to prevent excessive stress on the studs, especially after long periods of storage or heavy use.
