Hub Bolt Loose?
Hi,
I bought a new steering kunkle at a junkyard for my civic. Well everything is good on it except that one of the 4 hub bolts where the lugs bolt on to hold the rim on is loose. You can spin it freely and push it back and forth. The other 3 are perfect. Right now I am driving around with this. How do I fix this? If I was to take it to a mechanic how much do you think he would charge to fix it for me? THanks

Easy fix. Just take the car to any tire shop & they can replace the stud for about $10-20.

If the stud has merely come loose, put the tire on, put the nut on, and tighten it up.
That'll re-seat it. You only need to replace it if it has actually broken off...or if the other three have broken, and you suspect it'll be next. Flunky PS-It's a lot harder to replace the ones on the front. PPS-I drove around the country for 9 months with a broken stud...fix it, but don't lose any sleep over it. |
