wheel stud
I've done it on a civic without changing the bearing. When I did it on my teg I bought new bearings, hubs and studs so I didn't even try. But a civic would be exactly the same thing. Probably depends on what kind of shape its all in.
On my '95 front, there's not enough room to get the studs out & in without taking the hub out.

You press the hub (#5) out from the bearing (#4), which usually destroys the bearing.

#17 is an anti-rattle spring, it's sides spring in against the pads. It also has a smooth surface for the pad to slide on. My Saabs & VWs don't have that, so after several years, the surface of the caliper bracket get worn. This way you can replace those #17s for cheaper than a caliper.

My wheel stud broke all 3 and couldnt even drive my car. I took out the axle nut, pound the axle out from the hub. Then I used a socket that was a just bigger then then the axle socket, place it against the hub #5 and pound it out with a heavy hammer. Dont hit #4 bearing. After that just pound the **** out of wheel stud and add new ones.
I have always wonder, what if I just purchase a type R hub that has 5 lug hub with 5 lug rotors, add 5 lug wheels, and have me a type R 5 lug sort of suspension? Worth doing it?
