and today's second tip - wheel studs
Had to fit 4 wheels studs, 2 per side (had to cut donw longer ones and cut thread but that is antoher story).
To fit to half shaft flange, fit a wheel and do up the nut.
Do not attempt to press in with a vive as it will not be pushed in straight (ask me how I found that out). Luckily was able to get the wheel
nuts on and corrected alignment, wasn't out by muuch but enough to make wheel nuts awkward to fit and then do up the wheel nuts. sorted!

What's a vive?

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

I pressed mine in with a 4lb sledge hammer (gently)

2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
