How do I remove the rear axle studs?

[6R9Runner]

Its time for the lefties to go- can I just pound out the rear wheel studs with the axle in place? Will that distort the axle flange?

Yes, you can just knock them out. It doesn't take much.

I like the left hand studs myself... Kind of like the gear reduction starter. ot:

Hmmmm you've convinced me to leave them alone but I need another rainy-day project now. :toetap:

Mine are left hand! Now if I could get a gear reduction starter to work

That's why you should always park at the top of a hill, so you can roll down and pop the clutch if the starter fails. Or keep an extra in the glovebox. :crazy:

If you recall, I kept the LH studs when I put the Halibrands on, smarty-pants.
And if you read the "WINF" thread you'll find that I'm keeping the GR starter...at least for now...

The only one left on my car that is left hand thread is the driver's side rear. When I replaced the rotors up front they came with right hand threads. I'll convert it over one day soon. If you ever take your car to a tire store for any work make sure to tell them the driver's side has left hand threads or they'll break them off for sure.

It must be called a mini starter for some reason. :stooges:

I have officially hijacked my own thread... how in the world could I have let this happen?
