Stickies, fool.

Like I said before...

 

Tools required:

* Man Hands
* BFH
* BFslideH (Autozone rental pn27032)
* 1x new stud
* Grease to pack in wheel bearings

1.) Jack up car, remove wheel in question
2.) Attach slide-hammer to hub assembly with two of the (hopefully) three remaining lug nuts
3.) Remove brake rotor / caliper assembly
4.) Commence sliding action to remove hub
5.) Beat the broken stud out with BFH
6.) Beat the new stud in with BFH. You may not be able to get it all the way in. If not, when you tighten the lugnuts on it will pull the new stud the rest of the way in.
7.) Pack some grease in the bearings
8.) Put everything back together. Installation is reverse of removal.

Hope that helped some.

well yes and no.. that is how i thought you should do it.. but the slide-hammer didnt take off the hub last time i tried this.. is there another kind of hubpuller/seperator?

 

That's the way I did it, and it worked for me. After about 30 minutes of slide-hammer action, the hub still hadn't moved out...at all. It just takes time and a lot of effort and that one final backwards slam that makes it separate.
