Default Can wheel studs be re-used?
I am planning on replacing a rear wheel bearing and wanted to know if I can just transfer the studs to the new one. They are the DRM studs, if that makes any difference. Changing the wheel bearings in the rear is quite hard so would hate to do it twice so please only respond if you KNOW for a fact.


Thank you!!
Rod

Well, when I did mine, I replaced the studs. I used the SKF Bearings that Pfadt has. Don't forget to change the axle nut.
