This video is about Repairing cross threaded bolts/wheel studs yourself and saving money in the process
Never go wrong with Harbor freight ! thanks for the video, very helpful , going through same situation, the only difference is my wheel studs are fine but a couple of nuts are not good anymore.
I have had this set for years and it has served me very well
Awesome video thanks saved me a ton of money. They quoted me 450 for the one stud
You are welcomed! Stealerships are ridiculous
My goodness sir, You have patience! Some these comments and you still try and answer them. Bless you!
I try
Two watches.. this guy means business.
Actually one watch and one fitness tracker! Thanks for the comment.
😂😂🤣🤣
Did 3 of these, they all turned out great, thanks
Yes it is an easy fix that saves you a lot of money!
Went to put my winter tires on my car (used car but new to me) and come to find out that 6 wheel studs are cross threaded! Here in Sweden it’s mandatory to have winter tires on in winter so there are many many tire shops that swap out tires. It’s very cheap to have them do it but that also means they have to do a lot to make money. They take the nuts off with an impact gun and also install them with an impact without threading the nuts on a little bit first. So it’s very common to have cross threaded wheel studs. I’m sure they also don’t torque the wheels properly. Long story short, I have to fix these studs but I will do so in spring when I put my summer tires back on. I had to force the nuts on so I could get the winter tires on this one time. I had to drive somewhere and the road was iced over. But since they’re already on no sense is doing the work in the cold.
Hi friend! Yes, solid reasoning. I would do the same.
I have a 2017 Tundra with a cross threaded stud on the front right.
Dealership said $125 installed for a new stud
3 other mechanics said around $100-$115
Im going to try this out
By the way mine is 14mm -1.5
I am sure you will succeed! Good luck
I actually did. The die was hard to find here in the Boise Idaho area but they had it at Tacoma screws
Took me maybe 20 minutes but it worked very good
If just the end couple of threads are mangled, a thread chaser or die can be used. If it is any farther, even after running a die on it, the threads will be weak. In that case, change the stud. As long as you can get to the back side, you can usually beat it out.
Changing the stud is not doing anything for weak threads,
Whats the name of this tool
It is called a thread tap
Can you post a link to the kit you used?
I bought it a harbor freight
Lisle has a stud tool to replace studs. EBAY has it. That tool is nothing but a die stock and handle. You could get a die socket that is square and the handle. A thread pitch gauge can tell thread pitch. Check if your studs are standard or metric.
How much is that tool? ANd why replace good studs? The idea is to repair not throw away. Thank you for watching!
The stud replacer tool will replace the stud with a new stud. What if your 'straightened' stud strips out? When a stud strips, it's weaker. Replace it with a new stud. Safety is involved. One guy swore up and down that you can test spark plugs with an ohmmeter. I corrected him and he cussed me out! Go ahead with your 'back yard mechanic' method, but it'll strip out! If the threads are simply a little messed up, you can straighten them, but not if it's REALLY messed up. That tool is nothing more than a die stock and tool. It doesn't even swing all the way around. Get a square die stock for use with a socket and ratchet for slightly messed up threads.
My Camry stud got damaged - Thanks to the mechanics that start the nut with air wrenches that can cause this. After seeing your video i feel all the more comfortable and think will be able to fix it. The Camry studs i understand are M12 x 1.5. Going to get a set from Harbor freight that had a metric set on sale for 16.99. if that works i will be a very happy person and all i will need is a new Lug nut that sells for $1.99 at Autozone. I can buy a new hub for under $40 but will have to take the brake shoes apart and not ready for that. I believe there is another option to pop the damaged stud and be able to replace it without removing the shoes and thats the next option if the die set doesnt work. God help me.. i have to get the car inspoected by this month end.
Did it work?
Looking to buy the same set from Harbor Freight to retap a cross-threaded nut on my Trailer hitch receiver.
It works great! I have had mine for years with zero issues!
The lock nut is a weak material and mess it up . I need to do this fix
Yes it is unsafe to drive a vehicle without correctly installed and torqued lugs.
Whatis the truck you working on
1999 Dodge Dakota 2WD
What of left hand threads?
The kit has both - so you can do that as easy
You save me old man! Thanks
Glad to help
I live in the USA did you use the standard or metric set? Not sure which ones to buy
Standard, thank you for watching,
Where can I buy the tool?
Mine came from harbor freight
Where can I buy that tool from?
Amazon and Harbor Freight have them at good prices
Thank you much!!!
Whats the name of the tool ur using to rethread the stud?
What black tool?
@@ProfessorDIY the one ur spinning on to the cross threaded stud?
@@julianr6283 That is a tap
Split die is what you want to chase threads behind the repair and outwards toward the repair. That way there is no chance of starting cross threaded.
Thank you I never had any issues using the method I demonstrated here.
@@ProfessorDIY sure thing. This method works as long as you are able to start one or two threads correctly. If you can or it's too booger'd up you'll need to start behind the damaged area and work your way out.
what is that tool called
it is called a tap.
where to buy this?
Most every place I bought mine at HF
Where did u get this tool?
Harbor Freight
What brand and where did you buy the tap? Great vid
Actually, it is from harbor freight and it works great! Thank you for watching!
Sadly the up close of the threads is not very clear.
Sorry
Not hating on this video but you're just better off buying new studs! It's a lot safer and they're less than $2
Why do you say that?
Julian Ramirez Rethreading can save time and labor. That tool don't seem to be open at the front for thru bolts. A die set and handle would do.
Julian Ramirez unless you have to remove the knuckle and take out the bearing then have to replace with a new bearing. Many new cars don’t have room to remove the stud without a lot of work. Dealership wanted $200+ dollars for a $4 stud replacement. That included new wheel bearing and 1.5 hours labor
Technology and old people!! bad combo
Exactly what are you talking about?
Ignorant people and the internet - that is a really bad combination!
