I went off looking for possible replacement studs (T3201277) and I noticed the cap nut wasn't on the list of parts. I then find out the triumph stud comes complete with the cap nut chemically stuck onto the end of the stud. And apparently you just wind the new stud in like a bolt.

So, sounds like if the studs back out, just clean 'em and re-lok tite them and wind 'em back in, no need to get the cap nut off. Might make things a bit easier for the next guy. Has anyone actually brought the triumph studs and is able to confirm whey do indeed come with the cap nut chemically locked on already?
I don't think it comes with the nut since its not listed as coming with the nut and when you look up the diagram for the stud, it never shows the nut in the same diagram.

Also the instructions for reassembly tells you to install new nuts onto the studs after placing the bevel box on the studs.

This is the part # for the nut T3350334

 
Report back please .Happy motoring .
I would feel better double locking regular nuts on studs that were locktited and installed in housing with correct torque, then removing regular nuts and replacing with nylock nuts.
