Hub bolt?

Another stupid question.New hub came with 5/8 studs and my old one had 9/16.Anyone know if my wheel holes will be big enough to fit?Thanks again.

No they will NOT fit. The studs can be pounded thru the back side. Contact Kodiak to get proper replacement studs.

You can also get the proper bolts at most big auto parts stores, and they will be faster and cheaper than Kodiak. Good luck

Thanks.I pounded out my old ones (9/16) and replaced the 5/8 ones with them.

You probably don't need me to tell you this, but be sure to re-torque those wheels regularly (every second fuel stop) until you are confident they have set well. Then still do it semi-regularly.

I would not have reused them.

There is a chance they can spin in the hub next time you take the wheel off.

When driving in the new studs there is a distinctive "SOUND" when fully set.
