Wheel Studs Spinning

[JabberJaw]

Anyone ever have a problem with the stud spinning when trying to tighten the bolts that hold the rear wheels on? One of mine are spinning..

Yep, same thing happened to me, but I was trying to get a wheel off. I was lucky, I gave i a quick sharp pull on the wratchet and it came loose. I suggest you fix this now or you may end up out on the trail somewhere and cant get your wheel off. I knocked the stud out of the hub and JB welded it back into the hub. No problems since. If it spins when you try to get it out, you could take a demel and cut a slot in the stud, then hold it in place with a screwdriver and turn the nut with a wrench. Or take the whole wheel and hub off and cut the slot in the backside of the stud, etc....

just a small tac weld on the back side to hold it in place...
make it small enugh and you could sand /grind/ it off when your done...or leave it

always gotta have some JB weld arround hehe. Locktite is good too, er not for hubs, just for other things though hah, that would suck to put locktite on your hubs.

I think it bites that I should even have to fix it in the first place.

Go in the "best of" forum and there is a great 5 star thread on this subject.

Hey Jabber if the dealer wants you to purchase an entire hub instead of just the stud,,,get a 250R wheel stud it will work too,,thats what I had to do..
