Bolts vs. Studs Posted by Gene N [Email] (#1094) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Gene N) on Sun, 18 Oct 2009 13:50:05 In Reply to: Observation/lessons on wheel bearing replacement, 2004, TonyJ [Profile/Gallery] , Sun, 18 Oct 2009 08:46:08 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I got so aggravated trying to get the wheels on my 9-5 and 9000, that I got two long bolts (about 100mm) for each car and sawed the heads off. I screw two of the cut bolts in about 20mm and push the wheel on. after I have the real wheel bolts in, I take out the studs and finish the job. The 9-5 is 12mm x 1.5mm, while the 9000 is 14mm x 1.5mm. I saw an advertisement for something similar that was $30. The bolts were around $3 a piece.
