Wheel stud thread pitch

[Big Wang Bandit]

I need to know it. I have 3 stripped studs. No need to lecture I jsut need numbers. Im looking to get a die to see if I can safely rethread the studs.


12mm x 1.5 or 12mm x 1.25

Or am i completely off?

Wheel studs are ony a few bux each. Your probly looking at less than 10 dollars to just buy some replacements, unless there is some reason you really want to fix what you have?

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

There is a reason... But it just leads to another problem replacing them... From what I gather the hub needs to be removed to access the studs. Not that being if i removed the hub isnt there a seal in there that will needs to be replaced? If not I can get some good ones today...

12mm x 1.5

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Thanks Jeff. Im gonna rethread em and see if they look okay.

Or if someone can tell me aobut removing the hub.. or how to get the studs out. I can do that today as well.

 

[figgie]

forget rethreading... they will just get cross threaded again.

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Okay. I heard it from Figgie. Must be truth

Any way of going about removing just the dust shield to geto to the back of the hub? I should go look but i want something set in stone.

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

Pretty sure there's some bolts on the back of the dust shield.

12mm x 1.5

You sure on that Jeff?
(thought they were 1.25 but it's been ages since I bought nuts)

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

I gave Hells the numbers but I couldn't remember which one either.

 

[IJ.]

I'm just going on memory as I have a pretty good eye for thread pitch

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

What would you do IJ. Try to rethread them or remove the hub and use new ones...

 

[IJ.]

Fit new ones everytime Hells

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Okay. Now its time to figure out how to go about removing the hub...

Hopefully by the time I get some new rimmmmz (Matt's Awesome black ones) Ill have 5 lugs again.. Time to go to toyota and ask for that seal!

 

[IJ.]

Hells: Not 100% sure on this but you might be able to do it without pulling the Hubs!

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

I didn't think you had to pull the back, but I thought you had to for the front.

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Yes this is for the front hubs... I need to get some new lugs(chriso...) And at LEAST 3 new studs.

And now just cause I think im gonna clean my threads on the lugs... the tap I would purchase would be a 12mm x 1.5?

Is 1.5 what we agreed on?

 

[IJ.]

You'll be able to see if there is a position that lets you knock the stud out the back when you remove a disc Hells, if not it's Hub pullin time!
(been years since I've had a hub off here)

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Okay. Well taking discs off is easy peasy. If anyone wants some insane rep and has a hub with no disc on... Im your man! Pics!

Yup, I'm sure, it's 1.5
