- 1). Break the lugs for the wheel that needs replacement hub bolts, using the breaker bar and lug socket. Block up a wheel to ensure that the tires won't roll when the vehicle is lifted. Use the hydraulic lift to pick the vehicle up at a structural point. Place the jack stands under structure points and lower the lift until the vehicle's weight is distributed between the lift and the jack stands.
- 2). Remove the lugs and wheel. Place the lugs inside the wheel and slide the wheel underneath the vehicle. Use the hex key set to remove the retainer bolts from the brake caliper. Slightly tap the caliper with a hammer to loosen it from the rotor.
- 3). Grasp the brake rotor and pull it loose from the wheel assembly. Place the 35 mm hub socket on the wheel hub nut and remove it with the breaker bar. Remove the hub nut and pull the hub assembly off the suspension column. Use the hammer and the hammering pin to beat the hub bolts from the front. Replace with new hub bolts by hammering them in from the back until the strike plate is even with the back of the hub assembly.
