I did a search earlier but i can't find the thread again. I'm doing my front 5 lug swap on my S13 right now so any quick response would be greatly appreciated. How do I remove the dust cap from the hub? I tried a hammer and flat head but i'm not getting anywhere. Also I bought a 36mm socket. Is that the right size to take out that big azz nut from the hub???

30mm.

Hammer and flathead, just like using a chisel.

And you did not search, period. Lying to impress us is just sad.

yep. juss chisel out the dust cover thingy. 30mm socket and a breaker bar is best to pop it off. unlike the rears, the fronts dont spin when u turn the nut, so u can have it up in the air and do it.

thread jack: Whats the purpose of a 5 lug swap? I would research it but im lazy and it really doesnt seem helpful in anyway. But thats just me.
