Has anyone got a spare stud for the rear hub of an S3 (I think they're all the same on each model)? I seem to have a faulty one, well it is after I butchered it accidentally today.. :-(



I could probably re-thread it but I'm not too sure it will be that successful.

Cheers

That's just an example, may not be the length you need but I think TVR did use longer than standard Ford

I've got a full set od std ones from my old S3c, you can have them for zippo if you collect or pay postage, but as phillpot said they are cheap as.

Cheers.....Tony..

Don't fit a second hand one. They are held in by crushing the splines as the stud is first pulled into the hub, hence once removed they won't be as secure and could get loose and then turn when you try to remove the wheelnut - a much bigger problem.

Fit new or it will be a false economy

Thanks guys. Tried looking late last night and couldn't easily find any, search kept taking me to an American supplier for some reason.?
I'll order from Rally Design as they've been good at supplying parts so far and I need a few other things as well. Cheers...
