Thread: Wheel studs

I don't want to sound patronising....but a Landrover dealer might be a good place to start. There's sure to be cheaper places and I'm sure a member here will tell you where to look.

Land Rover will only sell me the complete hub. I have electric brakes on the camper and need to use those hubs.
thanx

I bought a couple of spare studs from my local dealer just recently.....I love my car but I do find the dealerships to be a bit "hit and miss" as to what they do and don't do...quirky to say the least !!!

Maybe you can try:

Triumph Rover Spares - The World's Largest Land Rover Dismantler or
Land Rover Parts - Range Rover Parts Perth, Sydney, Melbourne

I understand that D2 studs are the same and they are, or at least were, available as a spare part. They are 14mm x 1.5.

I used D2 studs on a trailer 3 years ago and they worked fine. What didn't work quite so well was the fact that the offset (I get confused about what is +ve/-ve) of the wheel meant that the inside of the tyres rubbed on the trailer. This was on an unbraked trailer so I put on a set of wornout D3 brake disks to be (legally?) a set of spacers for the trailer.

So if you went in for a set of wiper blades will they only sell them to you if you buy a windscreen as well.....what an odd way to run a business

How about this one... I had a rock hit one of my LR driving lights. LR don't sell the lens as a spare part for the D3. They do however sell a spare part for the RR - which is exactly the same shape/size/part as the one in the D3. However, you have to buy it yourself as a spare part and install yourself - as dealerships are ignorant. They instead want to sell you a whole new set of lights (at about $800).
