simpletool Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I've got a set of 20 extended wheel studs and need them shortened. Anybody know a place that would shorten these ? I don't have an angle grinder to do it. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/412687-cutting-wheel-studs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Natro Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I've got a set of 20 extended wheel studs and need them shortened. Anybody know a place that would shorten these ? I don't have an angle grinder to do it. Why not just replace them with standard length studs?

simpletool Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Probably because I want longer wheel studs....at a guess. As for answering a question with a question.

blackers10 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 where do you live?? any boilermaker or engineering shop or supercheap or bunnings etc. should have a grinder... boilermaker would probably charge you the same price the cost of a grinder and 1 cutting disc will set you back Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/412687-cutting-wheel-studs/#findComment-6607185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owgasm Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Cut it yourself just have the nut on first. Or buy the right size. Should be able to get standard, Mid and then the very Long ones.

simpletool Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yeah I went out an bought an angle grinder, and a pack of 1.2mm cut-off wheels. It's good to have for the future. I got the 10mm GKTech spacers and 78mm wheel studs front and rear. Need to cut them down to 55mm.
