Replacing a Wheel Stud

Has anyone replaced a wheel stud on their Bongo? Can it be done by a non techie or is it best left to a garage. Also does anyone know the part number for a wheel stud used on a Bongos rear wheels, I understand that they may be different from the wheel studs used on the front wheels.

I have a broken wheel stud on my nearside rear wheel. Wheelquick sent me another one with new tyres and alloys but somehow the wheel stud got lost in transit and they don't have another one.

Thanks Anna, looks like a garage job to me. But I still need to know where I can get a replacement wheel stud.

Yes I found it Anna. Just wondering how much I would save if I put off ordering until next Monday when the VAT comes down.

Can't make my mind up wheter to order one or five as I have read on the net that if one has broken the others may have been compromised so it is better to change all the others at the same time.

Hi, The Vat will only make a difference of a few pence with postage, but if you order more you will save on postage.
I assume you have tried The bongo fury shop, to see if Ian has them?
Maybe even- One of the guys have one.
I hope you get it all sorted soon :)




Cheers Anna
