i have an 01 teg and on lug stem on each front side is stripped. i boguth new ones. they were only 1.06. now i went to put them on and it looks like they need to be pressed. i took it to a shop and the want 200 to do it. that i bullshit. 200 to install a part tht was 1.00. do you know any shop or person that can do it?? or how much it will be somewhere else? is there a trick to do it myself?



thank you,
brandon

 

anyone?

 

yeah. that ass hole wants me to give him all the parts to do it and 200 for like 20 mins of work

 

You need to physically remove the hubs from the steering knuckle to press in the new studs. It is a decent amount of work that requires special tools that can be expensive. $200 ain't bad considering this job can't be done by just anybody with a set of tools and a jack.

 

I can do it for $80. I've done that many times. LMK.

 

ok thanks.

 

ive done it two times its a big pain in the ass .. but i did it. i used a hammer and a few curse words .

 

why the hell does this have to be soo hard to do. i dont get it.

 

it will save you so much time and money if you take the knuckle off yourself then take it to some one to do it you can do it yourself you dont have to remove the hub completely just about 1/3 of the way out then remove the old one put in the new one and then tighten it till there is no space
