i would imagagine as easy as the xa and xb. you need to find someone who makes longer studs first.

Why Why Why ?????? Do you have some bad-ass turbo'd out yaris that you need to install some big slicks on the front ? I had a full drag fwd dsm that I installed arp's on the front . On that I had to take off the front hubs and you either need to use a press to knock the studs out/re-install or just bang them ef'er out with the BFH(bigg fancy hammer lol) and press the new one in with a vise and some blocks , very primitive way of doing the job , but its all I had , install way free , and it worked .

lol i am actually trying to add more thread to the rear so i can put my spacers on to make the rear wheels flush with the fender and still be able to turn the lugs enough for it to be safe.

so i need to install them with a drum set up :)

HA Ha thats so funny , I didn't even think about the longer studs for more rear offset. Pretty much the same a the front you take the drums apart/off a knock the studs out the hub .

i tried replacing the studs in the rear to add spacers myself. it's quite the job. i took the whole drum apart and knocked the studs loose but couldnt slide them out. i didnt want to take apart my whole drum myself cuz i didnt want to be messing around with the brakes because i have no idea how to do it. so then i brought it to the shop and they took a look and said they would have to take off the whole drum brake itself. quoted me quite a bit of money to change the studs... maybe if i ever convert to rear disc ill get em done at the same time hehe

hitting your fingers with a hammer, sorry ,
but that is the truth , replaceing studs is real easy.

i hammered them loose and there is no way of getting those studs out. even if there was a way, good luck putting longer ones in...

I usually use a torch to heat them up first then they come right out lol.

@BrazdonW: How big are the spacers that you got?
I'm thinking about getting 10mm hubcentric spacers... I shouldn't have to worry about the studs, right?

I'd also like to add( since i just did 2 subaru's this weekend for extended arp wheel studs)
that it helps to put the new studs in the freezer the night before. This aids in putting them in, as they warm, the metal expands. G/L!

You can never have too much grip.

I am a little confused the spacer i have goes between the drum and the wheel and the ones in the pics are behind the drum
the studs i need to remove are different
i understand needing to knock them out but it looks like once loose i still wouldnt be able to back them out because the drum cluster wouldnt be deep enough to get them out
am i not understanding how you get the studs out?

those aren't hubspacers.

Tamago had some really nice hubspacers (the one in the pics on the last page).

I've got them on our yaris.

I'd contact Tamago as his were a really great quality and fit perfectly.

FYI, I replaced the studs on my xB a few years back. I used 10mm H&R TRAK spacers, which were very nice and included extended lugs. The stud/drum thing was a PITA, but worth the effort.

Those are the spacers I'm interested in... I thought they were hubcentric? :confused:

Thanks. I was getting confused between hubcentric and hub spacers in general... Looks like those two terms are not interchangeable...

Then maybe you can't do this job yourself. You will need to disassemble the brake assembly if you cannot pull the studs out, and only then can you knock them out. Go borrow a slide hammer.
