Need Help with the front wheel hubs!!!
My 60 1/2ton has factory front drum brakes and the hub that the wheel studs press into has stripped up 3 of the 6 studs. Meaning the wheel studs spin freely in the hub because the hubs splines are stripped. Anyone know of someone here in Tulsa, OK that could repair the hub or a good welder that can weld the steel studs to the cast hub?

Re: Need Help with the front wheel hubs!!!
I just had mine done two months ago. Took them to a welder and he charged me $10.00. It was a simple spot weld. The problem I ran into was the front was 1/2 inch thread and my back was 7/16th. I wish I could do it over but that will all change when I go to disk fronts.

Re: Need Help with the front wheel hubs!!!
As an option you could change them out for 1/2" studs if you have a way to drill the hub out. Then of course you would need new lug nuts as well.
