Some "new to me" used wheels have been purchased. I plan to mount someewhat sticky tires on them for autocrossing. Wondering if any body uses 7/16ths wheel studs on their Spitfires instead of the sto

Can anyone help me? I had saved,but now have lost, a post someone on the list had written about changing Spitfire wheel studs. I think they used studs from a TR-7/8 but may have been TR-6.It require

Well, I've been working on straightening out misc. rear end noises on my '80 spit. I took the axles into a gent with a 25 ton press and had him press the hubs off, then I replaced the bearings. I hav

That's right. The lug nut will draw it back in place. But maybe you want to replace it anyway. Talking with Ted Schumacher last month, he suggests having wheel studs tack welded in. Regards, Atwell H

The vice (vise to the Americans?) method is the only way I know. Use a socket with an o/d slightly smaller than the cup housing to press the cups in all the way. Press one slightly beyond its circli

The other thing to be careful of is that the cup is going squarely into the bore of the yoke. If it isn't, the (rather sharp) leading edge of the cup can carve its own way for a small distance, ruini

Hi Chip, '80 3/4. The position of the bearing on the axle is what is important. The flinger cup just needs to be tight against the hub to keep dirt out. The u-joints are very sensitive to the caps be

OK, I'm thinking I should replace ALL the wheel studs on my Spit, since stripped. Don't want to worry about the others you know. I know how to do it with an impact wrench. Unfortunately, I don't have

I have a whole section on my website devoted to replacing wheel studs. You need not remove the disc. And no, you won't find wheel studs for Spitfires at NAPA or any of the local auto parts stores. B

I assume that you mean the rear wheel and yes it can be done without removing the hub. You will have to remove the brake shoes and hardware, at least I did. Firmly seat it by stacking it with washers
