  • Need help retapping my hub

    Has anybody on here done this before? One of the holes in the front driver's side hub has been stripping the wheel lug bolts. I haven't done this before so I don't want to end up F*#@ing it up more. Is anybody able to help me?

    Or the second option would be, should I just go for it and have the hub assembly replaced?

        That's kinda what I figured. Anybody know how much the part is? I thought I saw an OEM parts website that offered the hub assembly for around $90us
