Loose Studs

[fiveologyjay]

The studs on my passenger front brake rotor are loose. I can't pull the studs out but i can spin all of them and this is causing me to not be able to torque down my wheel. Any ideas as to what would cause this? Thanks

Pull your rotor off to check and see if the splines on your studs are stripped. Sounds like they are, you might even have the rotor stripped, causing you to buy another rotor...a cheap fix would be to tack weld the studs in place, but tack them where you can grind off the tackweld so you can replace the studs/rotor later

I think IM going to end up getting a new rotor for it. Does anyone know what sockets I need to get the cam off for the auto hub and the bolt to keep the bearing tight? Thank you

There is a small wedge in the slot on the spindle. Remove that first and the auto hub nut will come off with out much force.

A strong little magnet is good for pulling that retainer out of the spindle groove
