Yes they are special studs available at auto parts stores. Don't ever use hardware parts for suspension, they are not meant to deal with the large about of load, shock and torque.

mazda wanted 5 dollars canadian each.



to replace the rear studs you will need to take off the rear hubs. Good luck.

remember to unstake the nut first then heave... then use NEW nut! very important on the new nut and use loctite.

take a big screwdriver and a hammer and knock out the dented in part of the nut and then unbolt. Then restate the nut by knocking a part of it back in after uput the new one in. You'll see when u go take a close look

I didn't need to take off the rear hub to do mine. I did however have to grind a piece of the stud down so I could slide it in.
