Hi,

While switching out winters on my girlfriend’s FWD 2008 HONDA CRV, a wheel stud broke.

After getting the rotor off and angle grinding the old studs off… the new stud will in no way go on. Does anyone have advice on how to get this in without taking the wheel bearing off? I tried the “D” cut on the stud but the angle and the wheel bearing are still in the way.

UPDATE:

Got it fixed. Shaved down the wheel hub, gently hammered in stud, then used a die thread to fix any threads damaged during insertion. And done! Not the right way by any means but enough to get a 2008 CRV with over 200k back on the road for now.
