Wheel bearing?
So I go to get my alignment and find out I need to replace my right rear wheel bearing. I just ordered the wheel hub with bearing. I need to know where to go to get the stubs pressed out of the old hub. Any suggestions?

If you mean the studs for the lug nuts just put an old lug nut on and smack it with a hammer, hit it square on and it will pop out. I had to do that to my parts car when I was in a bind and was able to reuse them, putting the old lugnut on saves the stud itself......if thats not what you meant then forget I said anything 
I just spent 330 getting a new wheel bearing overnighted to me and found out I didn't need it, was special order so I couldn't return it either.....that sucks

No, you can pull them back through the new hub just by lining them up properly and tightening them down with a lug wrench. I never use impacts for that so you don't screw up the studs or over torq and snap them. once you get them started use a torq wrench to tighten them to spec
