I assume you've tried a 1/2 impact gun on an air line?

get a very sturdy breaker bar and a very very long poll and spray some WD-40 or Knock er' Loose(similar to WD-40 but better) on the nut and use some brute force on it..
Good luck

Pb blaster and the breaker bar is the way to go.

You are also going to have to have the hub pressed out to get the new studs in, which may mean that you will also need a new bearing.
