Question Wheel Studs Again!

Well I will have my new wheel studs in tomorrow! (Thanks for the Info Mark)
Just wanted to know if $4.75/stud pressed-in is reasonable. I have never done this before so I have no clue.

Also wanted to know if any you Ladies and Gentelman have used POR-15 before. I was thinking about using it on the spindles and a-armswhile I had everything off for the wheel studs. Any info on this product would be helpful!

I used POR15 on my roll cage. Great stuff, HOWEVER dont wear clothes you plan on keeping when using it. If it gets on your skin, its gonna be a while before it comes off so wear gloves. Also makes sure whatever you are putting it on is PERFECTLY clean. Use a metal cleaner that completly evaporates prior to apllying the POR15.

Thats not a bad price, but i think with a little know how you could do the work yourself. just beat out the old studs and pund in the new ones from the back Its not hard just take you time and its easy.

I have also used por 15 on my cage, like boyce said it gets on something and you are never getting it off, And clean means clean, i had some areas that i didn't clean real well it will peal up in a few days.

Thanks ryan for the help with the part number. For anyone that is looking for these wheel studs it is an Oldsmobile part number if you go to the dealership, but will fit all of our cars!
