Any other way to change wheel studs?
Is there anyway to change the wheel studs on my car without pulling my whole diff. apart? I have 2 broken wheel studs and I need to change them. My car has traction control with that gear that keeps the studs from being knocked out the backside. Any suggestions?

Have you tried a "search"? I'm sure I've seen someone post the "trick" to getting the studs out on the traction control cars, without pulling the axles.

Just did it myself, Put a deep socket on the other side of the hub and take a hammer and bang them out, there pressed in so just pop them bad boys out the back then put the new one's through from the back put a bunch of washers on the stud and tighten the lug on the stud itself till the studd appears to be fully pressed in. good luck
