How to Remove Spinning Wheel Stud
#11
I tried cutting from behind with the Dremel, but couldn't get close enough/or the right angle to the back of the stud; the wheel was in the way. I had a similar issue with the welder and finding a good ground. After getting frustrated and concerns about the heat, I went back to the drill. Finally got it though after about 5 or 6 hours of drilling. What a b*tch.
So the next question is can I just replace the stud? If it passes a visual inspection, I may try it. Without the wheel mounted, I can easily cut it off.

I used a cutoff wheel to cut off the back of a manifold stud on an exhaust system for the same reason (spun with the nut). After the back was cut off, I pounded the stud out that way. It was pretty easy. I had some room to work though. Not sure if you do?
