Fitting longer rear wheel studs?
I just got a set of Isotta 16mm rear wheel spacers with extended studs for my '04 350z
The problem that I found is that after removing the caliper & disk & handbrake shoes to expose the hub, there just isn't enough space between the hub & the dust cover to get longer studs behind the hub to push them through. I've tried rotating the hub to get to a point where the gap is largest, but its still not enough.
Do I have to remove the entire hub assembly? It doesnt look to easy to loosen those 4 bolts holding the hub assembly to the suspension. Do I pull the front of the hub out of the bearing?
Any links or advice appreciated.
