Default Broken wheel studs HELP ASAP!

I broke 3 wheel studs on the drivers side and 1's still on. I want to replace them all. I'm having problems.
I've manage to remove the cailper and disk brake rotor, but how do I remove the hub that has the wheel studs on them? Do I need an axle nut to undo the axle from the hub? or do I just pull the hub outwards toward me as hard as I can?
I need my car for work tomorrow.

Any other tips or advice would be helpful!

Yes you need to remove the axle nut, then you will either have the press out the hub or use a slide hammer.

I 've tried using the axle nut but it just keeps turning the whole left axle! How do I make it stop? or do I just keep turning it?

Some people here disagree on my tactics on this but I did it to my car and it works fine...

You can have them replaced in a couple minutes.

yeah I already saw your link and everything all I want to know is how to remove the wheel hub using the axle nut?

If someone can tell me that I'm good to go.

Change the studs or the hub out

use a dremel tool to saw off the studs as much as u can like up to were they go into the hub...

u can then use a screw driver and hammer to drive out the studs, i hammered new 1s in from behind, worked fine.

Read what I put, you remove the axle nut with a socket then you need a slide hammer or press to get the assemble out.
