Question:

I have a 2001 triton xt10vr-10. I’m trying to find the correct wheel stud replacements. Had a couple spin as I was taking the lug nuts off. The whole hub assembly Info may also be helpful as I might just replace the whole unit.

If the wheel studs are spinning in the hub then it's definitely time to replace the entire hub. More often than not the hole for the studs gets worn and the teeth on the stud no longer have anything to grip into. That being said, you can try hammering the spinning ones out and seeing if the teeth are worn away or if it's the hole that's chewed out.

If you're only replacing the studs then you'll want to measure the stud based on the diagram below in order to find the correct replacement.

If you're wanting to replace the entire hub then you'll need to know the axle capacity, wheel bolt pattern and will need to remove the hub to measure the spindle at points B, C, and D with a set of calipers # PTW80157 so we can find a hub with compatible bearings.

I've attached a few guides below to help walk you through this process.
