Ik this is kinda long ago but how did you know how tight to tighten them you just hand tighten them?

[@backcountryrich7740]

Well I have a manual. Would recommend getting one or look up your bike online to get the torque spec. Thanks for watching!

Do you have the link to these stud extractors. That’s what I need. I don’t like how to remove and install the studs with the two nut method as I feel it strips the nut and bolt. That’s what happened to me one of them stripped really bad so I just used a dremel to cut a notch in it to see if I can get a flathead on it but it broke the Piece of metal from stud so now have no other way to remove unless get this stud extractor socket. Even with only trying to get it torque to about 14 lbs can’t get it.

This is what I have in the toolbox. a.co/d/2iKu1yL

hi, whats the name of that adjustable ruler? how do you know what height to set the studs at?

[@backcountryrich7740]

Hi, I got that ruler at a hardware store. Probably find one on Amazon or Harbor Freight. I installed the studs with no thread locker initially and made sure that there were a few threads remaining above the nut when tightened down while also accounting for the gasket thickness. Hope that helps.

I know this video is a couple years old now but how do I get the two nuts off the stud😐 they are on there good

[@backcountryrich7740]

Might have to apply some heat. Are the shoulders stripped off?
