disc brake wheel stud swedge tool
does anyone know where one can find a swedge tool for 7/16" wheel studs. replacing the rotors and need to find the tool.
thanks in advance.
If your asking about the 65-72 Kelsey Hayes, 4 piston caliper, disc brake system, you don't need to cut the studs, like you would need to do with DRUM brakes.
They just press out, separating the rotor, from the hub.
As another stated, a BFH works too, by putting the lug nut back onto the stud, flush with the threads, and whack away.
Done it a bazillion of times that way, in the old days when these brakes were still findable on donor cars, in the wrecking yards, with shot rotors on them, that you weren't going to pay for.
At home i have a press, so i just press out the old studs, then press in new studs.
Easy peasy.
