Seriously man, just have someone who knows what they are doing take care of it. The reason you replace the wheel bearing when you press out the hub is because it is usually damaged in the process. Therefore, pressing out the hub requires you to buy a new wheel bearing. You can go the DIY route and grind the side of the stud down to pass over the knuckle but why the hell would you reduce the seated area of something as critical as a wheel stud?

Hope you're just taking the hub there and not letting them work on the car...

I only say replacing your wheel bearings only because ive had cars come in for a simple replacing of a stud or (s) and turns out that I take everything apart and balls just drop and fall on the floor. If its usally a high miliage car like over maybe 60K iam guessing I would go ahead and spend or save up and wait to get it all replaced.

I dont know if your replacing one or more but you can ride on only 3 it will not affect anything and is safe. Two is good even, fine if you dont drive crazy. Like fast turns but not suggested.
