Does anyone have an idea on how to install a wheel stud on a 2000 Dodge Caravan. I'm was able to remove the brake caliper and rotor to access the wheel hub and remove the broken wheel stud. But for some reason, i can't figure out on how to install the new stud. There just isn't enough space back there. Unless i remove the wheel hub and i don't want to do that. I'm a rookie and i don't want to mess around too much.
Anyone have a trick for this procedure.

Thanks

 

i am in the same boat right now. am going to be doing this next week but it looks like you have to take it all apart to get the new one in. if you get to it before me let me know.

 

I have a stud installer from mac/snap-on to install the studs. I use a brass hammer to knock the studs out.

 

so it dos not need to come all apart then to replace a stud. thanks i will try that then will save a lot of time.

 

I've never had any problems with installing new wheel studs on these vans. It's really easy. to properly press them into position, I use a special bearing I made to use with the lug nut and tightening the lug nut to 100ft lbs, I'm able to properly seat the stud.

 

now that i think about it i do have a hell of a c clamp in my tool trailer i made for holding big I beams. i could modified it. thanks for the thought.
