Hey guys I'm new here and I need some help, I bought the arp extended wheel stud for my rear wheels but I can't figure out how to install them. I watched a video where someone installed them on an is300 and I attempted the same method but had no luck so if someone had pictures or know of a video that shows how to do it on a gs that'd be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Is this the video you saw:


Whats the problem? Its pretty cut and dry and the same way to do it on a GS. The only thing I say is, hammer ONE stud at a time and just remove the E-brake entirely to make it easier! Or just one side of it at the very least.

Yeah that's the one I saw but the studs seem to be a bit longer so I was wondering if there was an alternative way to putting them in

The way the guy is doing it may be tedious, but possible with patience, thats how I did mine. If you're really having a problem just get in there and remove things that are in the way, thats what I do when I do mechanics. Just by looking at the video, looks like its the dust cover thats in the way... remove it.

Well the front dust cover needs to be cut with a dremel and then removed because it is sandwiched between the hub and spindle.

The rear dust cover is the same, except way worse because it is much thicker. (Picture below) The hub would probably have to be pulled off to do that.

If your wheel studs are a little longer than Mr Jokster's it might be even more difficult.

Maybe pulling out the shoes would help? I'm not sure as I haven't been in this situation.
