I broke a wheel stud on my FL2 and the studs are not available as just a part, only new hub.

After much searching have found a VE commodore wheel stud is close enough and does the job. A VE one is approx 5mm shorter in the thread and you have to remove the rim locating tip off it.

Its still not a simple job though, its press the hub apart to fit.

Hope this helps someone else that has a broken stud and would like a cheaper option than a whole hub.

I wanted to replace one stud (stripped thread) and was quoted $700 supply and fit new front hub. This is bloody ridiculous when studs are only a couple of dollars at best - would greatly appreciate any help on year/model to fit 2012 SD4 SE Freelander 2. :censored:

this is the one I used.

Holden Commodore VE Wheel Stud FOR THE Front Rear 14mm X 1 5mm | eBay (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/HOLDEN-COMMODORE-VE-WHEEL-STUD-FOR-THE-FRONT-REAR-14mm-x-1-5mm-/330672772621?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4cfda2160d)

I have a 07 but the hub assembly is the same for all year models
