As I was rotating my wheels, I see one front wheel stud is shorter. I shot pics before putting the wheel on.
IIRC, this stud had some movement several years ago. Not sure how to proceed. The billet hubs are mounted onto the rotors; these are the one Brad Roberts sold awhile back. Calipers show how much thread is showing @Mueller Attached image(s)

Look like threaded studs, double-nut and turn it out. Probably held in place with thread locker.

Otherwise replace it with a longer one to match the others. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

They started out the same length. I noticed this one stud had worked its way down when changing the wheels previously.
Can't remember if the studs are threaded inside and screwed in or had splines and pressed in. Double nuts; I'll pick up tomorrow, what size will I need ?
