Jak Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Fit the Eibach Spacers that come with the longer studs? The set i bought from Ricardo arrived to day and i'm itching to fit them!! is it something i can do easily or best left for a garage? Thanks in advance Jak Quote
Wookiee22 Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Just to clarify, do you mean the ones without the bolts already attached to the spacer? Quote
Jak Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 Yep the ones pictured in this thread.... viewtopic.php?f=31&t=33151 Quote
Wookiee22 Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 This may help mate: http://www.my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tires/263033-nismo-60mm-extended-wheel-studs.html Quote
Husky Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 you could hammer your old studs out but risk damaging the hub you could use a press to get them out, safer on the hub but it'll cost you unless you know someone with one and you need to take the hub off. Quote
Jak Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 Thanks Guys, Husky - think i may start with the hammer - but gently!! dont want to risk damaging so if it dosnt seem like its going to work easily then i'll look at a diffrerent approach! Jak Quote
ZMANALEX Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 They will knock out very easily mate. Then all you have to do is feed the new ones in from the rear and pull into place using a wheel nut. Job done. Quote
Jak Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 ZMANALEX - That is a perfect answer - i wish all answers were exactly the ones i was looking for! What woill i have to remove/ release to be able to do this? obviously the wheel - anythin else? (sorry is that seems a pretty newb question!!) Jak Quote

Jak Remove the two large bolts holding each calliper on and slip the callipers to the side and tie up. Slip off rotors to access the studs. You may have to let off the handbrake cable adjustment on the rear to get the rotors off as the handbrake shoes are within the rotor. Alex. Quote
Husky Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 also remember to double check the torque of the wheel nuts after a few miles as they are all new bolts in there Quote
