stock rear wheel studs? Can anyone show me what size and where i can find stock rear wheel studs? Maybe a 1/4" longer? It's a 98 z28 I stripped a rear stud so its just sitting in the garage until I replace them. Is it hard to do?
I would go ahead and go with ARP studs if you're going to replace them. They have different lengths. Stock studs are 2-1/8" long, and they make a stud that's 2-1/2" long, part number is ARP 100-7708.
As far as installation, it's pretty easy, even easier if you have an actual stud installer tool. You take the brakes off, smack the stud with a hammer from the front and it pops out. You have to kinda wiggle it around to get it out, then wiggle the new one in place and pull it through.
Forgot to add: You'll need to disconnect your wheel speed sensor to have room to get the stud in and out.
