abakja1 · 11-29-2009, 08:23 PM

just read this thread again as I will need to do this mod soon and have some ideas to save some money... So chime in if more experienced mechanics/DIY'ers disagree..

1. I would take off 1 at a time and remount, but wouldn't it be easier to remove each oem stud using a hammer and punch to "push" them out?

2. Using the access hole, you can punch the new studs back in.

3. I agree using anti-sieze on the spacers so they dont stick and on the studs as well..

Let me know as I plan to do this when weather gets better during a weekend... Turkey cooking and BF shopping had me busy this weekend..
