Had a front tire go flat on my 2N today. I hit all the bolts with WD-40 and went back to the barbecue for an hour. Came back and the nuts on the right wheel all turned fine. On the left wheel, I had to use a helper pipe on all the nuts and ended shearing one of the bolts off! After that we had to take a sledge hammer to the wheel to break the rust seal with the hub.

Question, how do I replace the stud bolt? I see that it looks like a carriage bolt with a small portion of the head chopped off to lock it in place.

Yep, those front studs are impossible to find. You can get real nice one while at Ford New Holland; just ask for Ford 2000 studs. There the same size and shape with the funny little heads. They are maybe 1/4 to 1/2 in longer than the original. One thing, watch out for the back studs. They are available but around 12$ apeice.

ED,
Had the same problem w/ my '41. Heated the stud and the area around it with a torch and let it cool. Drove it out with a hammer and a punch.

I tried to find a stud (with or without the flat) at the local parts stores. No luck. Got one from Don @ just 8N's.

As far as I could tell, the stud was pressed in. I had to use a press to install my new one. With a little grinding you might get it in with a hammer.

My nickels worth!

FWIW, in my experience, WD40 is good for displacing moisture and as the ultimate male cologne. It really not a lubricant. Had a neighbor grind the gears off his boatlift using that stuff.

There is a product called Kroil, and they make a Silikroil that has been working wonders on frozen bolts, nuts, motors, etc. for me for over 25 years. Do a search and check out their web site. I'm not connected in any way; it's just good stuff.
