Stripped Hub? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I replaced my studs and put in new ones then when i took off my wheels, some of the studs are loose and wont stay on the hub. is it possible that its stripped and thats why it wont stay on the hub? I've never experienced or heard of this before.

is there any possible solutions to this?

thanks

Just make sure the studs are the correct size.

The studs are a softer metal than the Hubs so the studs would wear down before the Hub would

If the hubs holes are stripped, just weld the holes closed and re-drill them

i had the same problem, ended up just buying a new hub

if i weld the holes in and drill them back out how would the stud still hold place? just curious. and where did you buy your hubs from k0uki?
