Broken Wheel Stud

Tap around the outside with a soft hammer. Eventually they will let go.

Please make sure that you leave the nut on the thread at least 1/2 a turn or at best you will loose the cone as it comes flying off at worst loose an eye!!!.

Never never hit the outside of the hub , this will make the holes that the cone fit in out of round, then the cones will never fit in properly again end result is that the studs will work loose and snap.

Learn from my mistake.

Undo the nut to the end to make a larger surface and tap the end of the stud, you don't have to hit them hard, I did my wheel bearings the other day and used this method in fact I have used this method for years now with out ill effect.

This was taught to me by a Toyota mechanic.

Cheers Steve.

One broken stud would be good reason to replace the lot at one time. My suggestion anyway. p.s. hope you use a torque wrench to correctly torque the nuts. Overtightening, a long time contributor to such falures.

Yeh well your all wrong, in fact I would have thought Steve should have known better, WRAP ON THE KNUCKLES FOR HIM, get the right sized little bolts about 1 and half inch long , 2 of them and screw them into the 2 threaded holes in the axle flange, that will slowly force the axle out , as someone else said leave the nuts on the end of the thread too so you don't lose the cones, , if you don't carry 2 required bolts , get them for next time .have a look at the link under the radio's
