Default Wheel Stud Replacementl 92 Prelude, Easy Way

OK, here's advice on removing broken wheel studs (on front) and puttin in new studs on a 92-96 Prelude.
I noticed there was no way in hell the old snapped studs would bang straight out,, there is simply not enough clearance.. and no notches on the knuckle behind the mounting flange...
so i decided to make a notch on the knuckle between the two caliper mountin holes.
Took about 2-3 mill off with an angle grinder and painted over with paint.
old studs came out no problem with the extra clearance.
To get the new studs in.. i grinded off the lip of half of the collar on the new stud as in the ARP stud install, and they flew in.. literally,
use an old steel wheel and old lug nut to pull the stud in.....
tighten and loosen a few times on each stud to bed it in..

much easier than removing balljoints, trackrod end, then having mounting flange pressed out,, ripping outer bearing out and 1 -1.5 hours work.

Peace be with you
Laurence
