Stripped wheel stud question
Hey everyone,
I managed to strip out one of my rear wheel studs. They are the screw-in type studs, not the push-in type (they have a 6 point bolt head and screw in form the backside of the axle flange). In my haste to unscrew the stuck nut it appears the threads on the stud also skipped inside the axle flange and now the stud is frozen soild in the axle. Yep, I really made a mess.
Im trying to figure out how to get this stud out. Im thinking I should cut the stud up to the axle flange and then drill it out, then try to retap the threads on the axle (by the way, its a 1/2-20 thread). Will this work? Anyone have any better ideas? If that doesnt work should I ram a push-in type stud in there?
Thanks in advance for your advice.Last edited by 63BoxNova; 08-26-2007 at 07:30 PM.

Could it be a 10114182? If so, it is a Gen V 454, 4 bolt 1991 (or later). Hope that helps..
