that's why you might have to undo Lower balljoint, pull out knuckle, get your cv axle out. And once you have room to move then you can pound the 6 studs out.

Replacing those studs with bolts is for you future cv axle change easier...but not when studs are still there...

btw, you don't need to take off the disc, just spin out all your bearings, outer race, nuts & stuff to free up your axle end.

just undo the Lower bJ with a BJ puller, super easy! only 1 big nut/cottonpine to remove!
