broke lug nut stud

[blairvt]

On rear. How hard are they to replace? Before I start taking it apart is it something I want to do or better to take it to someone? I know the break drum has to come off, but then how hard is it to get a stud mounted?

Not hard at all.

Super easy.

thanks. Easy enough. Take care of that today. The bolts to remove the rotor are M8-1.5 correct?

 

[davidch]

M8x1.25.

A fair bit easier on the ear than on the front.

But it's not that hard on the front. I broke one off about 2 months ago. I have the new one, but so far I've been too lazy to do it.

Did it this afternoon. When the drum came off a spring and 2 little silver washers fell out. WTF? I put them back on to match the way they looked on the other shoe. Thing is, they were clean as they could be while the ones on the other side were covered in break dust. ????

Could've been rattling around cleaning themselves
