Default Rear wheel stud removal

Hi all. I am putting wheel spacers on the rear of my buggy and have longer studs ready to go in but I am struggling to get enough space to remove the old studs let alone put the new ones in.

I have removed the rear brake plate and still don’t have enough space. Does anybody have any idea please of how I can get more space to fit studs?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

you may have to pull the axle shafts from the housing... what kind of spacers did you get?

There is a snap ring which retains the axle that's visible through the inspection hole. The axle and stud mounting plate are one.

You need a quality pair of 90º snap ring pliers and a pan to catch any rear end oil. Bearings are pressed in and sealed so no worries there. The axle may need a bit of persuasion to come out

Is this along the right lines. I know it is a Jeep but it looks similar. Just need to find how to release the snap ring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNLePvUoM3A

You got it

If you jack the axle you are working on up higher than the other side - all the oil won't pour out all over the dang place when you pull the axle... don't ask me how I know this

Thanks for all the advice. The spring clip was a bit of a bugger but it came out, pulled the axle out and cha he’s the studs. I was worried about bending the spring clip but managed to straighten it no worries. The whole thing just took a bit of patience. Thanks for all the advice
