Abstract
A wheel stud press assembly comprising a frame assembly comprising a frame member and a drive system comprising a drive rod. The drive system is supported by a shoulder portion of the frame member to displace the drive rod along the drive axis. The frame member is configured such that, when and anchor member is detachably attached to the frame member, the drive axis is offset from the main portion of the frame member. When the drive rod engages the wheel stud to force the wheel stud out of the wheel opening, at least a portion of the anchor member engages wheel flange adjacent to the wheel stud to allow the wheel stud to be forced out of the wheel opening, and the anchor portion is offset from the drive axis to allow the wheel stud to be displaced out of the wheel opening.
