Hello,

I need someone in the GTA area to come to my house to help me fix my front rotor. I need to replace my wheel studs because 3 of them are busted. I've done some research on this forum and basically i need some tools which i don't have to be able to do this. If anyone here is mechnically inclined to do so i'll be willing to pay you for your labour to fix it.

Thanks so much.

you'll need more than just the studs, you also have to change the hub nut if you're removing it (and ya, you have to remove it..)
studs are in the hub, not the rotor..

where's "home" (city), i do have the tools...just dunno how far i wanna travel, spare time is hard to come by lately ...

30mm socket, torque wrench, the rest is basic...

hub nut is the nut that holds the hub onto the spindle..

i'm getting mine done this weekend (Saturday), as well as my rotors so i'll see what the guy wants to do it..
i can get it done cheap

The bolt studs for where you put your wheel lugs on are pretty easy to change on the rear.. you don't even need a proper tool.

I was given the wrong size nut once.. and it stripped my stud.. so me and some friends replaced it without problem... I'm not sure how much different the front one will be but I'm sure it's something that could be figured out.

Honda wanted to charge me 1.5 hours of labor to change the stud.. @ $75/hr. YOU WANT ME TO PAY ... HOW MUCH ... FOR CHANGING A STUD?!?!?!?!?!?!

All I had to do was buy a few friend's coffee after and it took us like 20 minutes to do it... the longest part was jacking up the car cuz we were laughing. I'm kinda interested how hard the front one is. I'll take a look tomorrow.

For the rear.. you need to take the rear drum cover off... and just hammer out the old stud... fish the new one in from the rear... and use your rim and lug to pull the stud into place. If your rims are made of gold (soft metal).. don't be using your rims to pull the stud out
