How To Change 2008 Honda Accord Wheel Stud Lug Nut Without Removing Bearing Assembly

- After Sam's broke yet more lugs off of our car I decided to record it this time. Doing it this way keeps you from having to buy a new wheel bearing assembly which is very pricy.
Wow, Honda made this process much too difficult. Some vehicles have an indentation that allows the studs to clear without issue
Yeah. I wish every good feature for each car came in a “super car”. Honda did this I’m sure to sell the press bearing job.
Not in the since of hyper or sports. Just an overall ultra reliable east diy car.
100% Truth
We just used your technique on an '05 Pilot. The car would have been totalled otherwise. The repair would have cost more than my son paid for the car.
I am glad it helped!
Stupid shops - they charge so much man. One of the reasons i have learned to work on my own vehicles.
all I can is What the F Honda 😂
Truth!! It is sad.
I'm going to give this a try tomorrow. Thanks for the ideas
Your welcome
great video. saved me tons of time and money. thank you
I’m glad it helped.
Great Video you made replacing the Studs
Thank you!
Your first and biggest mistake was, repeatedly, having anything done to your car at Walmart or Sam's Club.
79firebirdman no matter where you go you will have incompetent mechanics. I've had mine serviced at an Acura dealer and the threads are still damaged.
@@npolite22 that's because they gun the lungs on full power instead of half power and then torquing LIKE YOURE SUPPOSED TO
Especially when you have your own lift...
Base on sloppy technician they will strip wheel stud, I used to work at Les Schwab and this shit happen so much because the lazy employees dont want to use their hand turning the lug nut 4-5 times before using the impact gun. They alway hiring young teenagers with no experience always fucking shit up, wheels falling off etc……I’m glad to be out of that shop now less stress.
@@KYOOBED just because you have a shop. You don’t aways for tires. Big tire have a monopoly on name brands and Chinese or Korean crap isn’t worth it. At my shop we did it all except tires and alignment.
This is why you NEVER bring your car anywhere for anything anymore. These shops abuse your car!
100% truth
switched out all five rears with this video! thanks for the help! i was stuck at my friends house for a week with stripped studs and my car lifted on jack stands . very much appreciated brother
I’m glad it helped you! Sorry for the delayed response.
😅 now it's time for the fronts
Walmart did the same to me, I presented them with a $230 bill, they paid it, not really happy about it though.
That is good to know.
Ive had to go through this a couple of times and mine has a notch where you rotate the thing until it matches the notch and then tap it out and in without doing all this work you had to do. I take it yours did not come with said notch. Are the places compensating you for anything like parts or credit for what they are putting you through in time, expense and aggravation? you're talking about more than half a dozen studs man. Sheesh. I would be pissed.
It is frustrating. They offered to pay for the studs that was it.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around why you'd have someone that works at walmart work on your car
🤣
"New wheel bearing assembly which is very pricy" - yup, $500 job instead $2 for a new stud ??!!! So we have to inspect for broken studs whenever get the car back from the mechanic ???!!!!
Any ideas on changing the studs off a wheel spacer? I stripped one of my studs and need to replace them
Thank you, the idea is ready helpful, cuz on the auto repair they wanted to charge me $280 to change one
For the front you would need a new wheel bearing. For the rear maybe an hour labor.
(At honda)
I’m glad it helped.
What tools did you use to grind the hub down and flatten the stud if you dont mind me asking?
Unfortunately even the dealership impacts lugs in - tech dont waste time torquing them down because they work on so many vehicles. Make a request to properly have your lugs torqued in which on must Honda's is 80lb
Truth!
those screws are used for factory use. you can remove them completely
Thank you.
I would grind further back and maybe a little deeper as the spindle/knuckle is pretty thick. That way the stud only need a little shaving. I might have to do this. Because I just paid for new bearing and what to run 10mm spacer. Might do just rear. Do you know how much longer front studs are?
I can’t remeber how long exactly but definitely longer.
Only do this in an emergency or light driving
I tried to loosen mine by hand and 2 of my nuts broke off. Last guy probably used an impact gun and cross threaded it.
People gonna people!
Suggestions i mean
Thank God mines the rear, thanks for your help.
I am very happy for you that it’s the rear!
lol, this guy is a butcher!
You should see my real job 😂 10 years strong and still rolling.
Will u be safe to drive with 4 lugs n that one is broke
It’s best to replace them and have all 5. I have seen people rode on 4 for many years but you never know when something bad might happen.
I've heard that Hondas use JIS drives rather than Philips drives, which explains why people tend to strip them out so often - because even though they look the same, they aren't. I'm about to try fixing a rear hub stud and special ordered some JIS drives from Amazon to try out. Thank you for explaining that this issue is often caused by impact drivers. I was advised to use one and found my lug stud striped out after that event. I will not repeat that technique. Thank you so much for posting!
I think it was a smart Idea to use a grinder against one part of it but it would’ve been even wiser to put the car in neutral and rotate the hub to get them out and in at that one spot 🤔 that’s how i do it and when i put the new wheel studs in I get my pb blaster and two 13mm wrenches and I pull them thru with 2-3 min cool times while also loosening them to keep the threads perfect and I forgot to mention I use a half inch pry bar with fitted socket or If it’s too difficult I just go and change the spindle out with different spindles from junk yard
Great info!!
Hi Solid Ground Staging, I used your technique to replace the stud on my girlfriends Honda Fit and it worked like a charm. I did it at my own risk and I think it was worth it. The grinding was very minor and I doubt any parts were compromised. If the stud breaks the wheel has three other studs holding it in place. The only thing that I did differently was tightening the new stud back in place with a nut. There was no need for a hammer.
Thanks for sharing your video.

Thanks for posting great video, I was able to cut the nut head, yank it out and flatten nut head and hammered it in, first one it was not too much flat head stripped it. Took out and inserted more flat head nut.
Great video helped a lot
Thank you for watching!
I guess that metal is extra! 😂
They put it there for extra curb weight 😂 10 years running it’s still doing good.
Awesome thank you! Exactly what I needed
Your welcome.
Sam's Club did the same thing to me! They offered to pay for the lug and stud which is what? $3? but wouldn't do the labor which is the hard part!
Same here. It’s sad.
If you end up removing the hub, do you need to replace the bearing?
yes unfortunately so. when you remove the hub , part of the bearing will come out with it 99 percent of the time. the way he did it Is actually very smart, still safe, and saves you unnecessary money
fyescas777 sadly yes you would.
Good video . It worked
Awesome!
don't understand why some people disliked this video, i found it helpful. It's an easier way of doing it without taking apart the whole assembly including the bearings to get a 2 dollar stud in and out.
I’m glad it helped.
Stop going to Sam's..
Agreed
Called a dust shield
Thank you this video was really helpful
Your welcome.
I'm just did some job yesterday guys . Very ease
I’m glad it helped.
😂😂😂 the end
very helpful , Thanks
Your welcome!
Use #3 phillips to remove rotor and it won't strip the head
Thank you.
i dont know too dark video
Cameras are much better 10 years later.
Can you use this method for a 2012 Accord
Jerald Paul I believe it would work on 2012 if the brake assembly looks the same.
There is nothing wrong with this repair (other than hammering it back on and the cheap hammer he was using). You are not cutting a chunk of metal from the knuckle. If you are willing to spend tons of money for a wheel bearing replacement and hub removal, feel free to do so. I would only do this on my own vehicle though and not on customer's vehicles. As long as you know the possible hazard of shaving a chunk out of the stud's flange, then do it at your own risk. Should put a disclaimer on this video, too.
I had to grind off metal from the knuckle/hub on my 2009 honda fit. Do you think i compromised the structural integrity?
On my cb7 I didn't have to dermal anything there was enough space
They changed it so you have more extensive work done.
