Randy is correct, I did it on my 66 IRS TR4A. Rotors need to come off the front hubs but rears can be done on the car. I assume you are doing this to replace wire wheels with solid wheels and you should as there is not enough thread length for solid wheels on wire wheel hubs.

Jim-

The 4A has press in studs front and back as on a TR6 - I did the same for my TR6.  For the back yes, no need to remove hub.  For the front, I'm fairly sure I had to take the rotor off to put longer studs in.  More involved but pretty easy.

Can you replace the shorter wire wheel studs with the longer standard wheel
studs on the front and rear without having to separate the hubs?  I haven't
done this in a long time and curious if you can switch these outs easily on
a 67 TR4A IRS.
Thanks,
