Wheel Spacer Install

i did my fronts by un doing the hub ass from shock so i could move the hubb free to get watch stud to the hole provided but not looking forward to doing that in rear any other ways its all wheel so using jack only 1 wheels off the ground and don't move freely
 
Please post in the proper section. Post moved.

Not exactly sure what are you try to say here. Are you trying to install wheel spacers to front and rear?
Take a look at post #1 on this thread if that is what you're working on.
 
The only thing I would recommend changing on here is suggesting you go to your local hardware store and pick up a M12 1.25 nut and washer for the hammering of the studs and the tightening of the new one. This is especially true for the Gen 2 folks that don't have the open end lug nuts. I'm doing mine on my G2 now, I'll let you know if there's any other differences between Gen 1 and Gen 2.

OK, a few more bits -

For the Gen 2 fronts, it's not as easy. You'll need a 22mm wrench to get the caliper bolts out. Also, at least on my FX50S with technology package, there is a bracket that holds the brake line to the top arm that you'll want to loosen up to make the brake calipers easier to get out of the way because the brake lines are very tight to that bracket. I attached my brake caliper via zip tie to the arm and let it dangle. While there, you'll want to remove the speed sensor on the side of the hub assembly. I used the 12mm bolt from the bracket to break off the rotor in the small hole between the lugs.

The front hub must be removed in order to remove/install the studs as the dust guard gets in the way. This video will help explain how to handle that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubty7wuWq8M
