Front wheel Stud problem....
Hi there, I can’t seem to buy a front wheel stud separately from Land Rover... has anyone recently changed a hub/wheel bearing?? Or know of a garage who regularly work on disco 3/4??
I really don’t fancy buying a new hub for a single stud
Some idiot drilled the locking wheel but and killed the stud, that’s why I need one!!
Look forward to a reply
Thanks

I have just fitted new front hub on a RRS, should be same as D3. I am going to bin the old unit but pressing the studs out first now seems like a good idea. I will confirm availability tomorrow.Chris

Sweet thanks dude! Let me know how you get on! I have just bought a disco 2 new stud as the measurements seem the same as the disco 4 ones... so I’ll update on that once it turns up

I removed studs this morning, quite easy with a small press. I think you are right about D2 studs being the same, so hopefully you are sorted.Chris

Okay, well I’ll deffo let you know the outcome!
I hope they are fingers crossed!!
Every person I called regarding this just told me I need to do it the proper way and replace the whole hub... but my wheel bearing is fine! Money grabbing b ds !! Haha
