The easiest way is to take the wheel off, take the brake rotor off, hammer out the old stud, put in the new stud (a little JB weld never hurt anyone here lol), and you're done.
I never even use the JB weld, I just put the new stud in, put everything back together b/c once the lub nut is on the stud, where's it gonna go, ya know?
Hope that helped a little bit

I reccomend once you put the brake rotor back on, before you put the wheel on, tighten a lug nut all the way down on that beast to make sure it pulls all the way through, then put the wheel back on and tighten em all down

I plan to grab the parts today and try it tonight after work.. I hope i get it, i need it by tomorrow lol
Pull it all off, bring it to us cause we have a press and you'll be done.....the proper way. BTW, don't hammer it out, alot of people do it wrong and mess up wheel bearings like this.
