pete rock Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 hi just a simple question.im missing one stud on my left rear tire on my 93 es300.and i think another one might be ready to snap to. how much would it cost to replace 2 studs on my one wheel??just an estimate if anyone has had it done id love to hear any suggestions.thanxx
George_Jetson Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 It's a simple job with the proper tools, I am sure you should get them replaced for less than $40.
pete rock Posted October 29, 2009 Author Posted October 29, 2009 ive never done a job like that before and wouldnt want to damage anything else.so your saying $40 bucks at a mechanic?? or DIY??
George_Jetson Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 $40 at a mechanic, for DYI it would be less than $5. The key is having access to a press to install the new studs.
ivan300 Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 you don't need a press, hammer out the old studs. Place the new studs in and put the wheel back on. torque the wheel to spec and the studs will pull themselves in.
pete rock Posted October 29, 2009 Author Posted October 29, 2009 ya i dont george id feel much more comfortable going to a mechanic for $40 just to know its done the right way and i dont have to worry about damaging anything.thank you guys for the help
