Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper installation, the old stud should be removed using a hydraulic press or a punch and hammer. Clean the hub flange hole of any debris or rust before pressing the new stud into position.
Before purchasing, verify that your current stud matches the 17.2mm spline diameter and 5/8 inch UNF thread specification. If your hub hole is damaged or oversized, the new stud may not seat correctly; in such cases, replace the hub entirely. Always use a torque wrench to tighten your lug nuts to the manufacturer's recommended settings after installation.
