Front or Rear?? If its the rear pop off the wheel bearing and hammer it out, if its the frt pull the brake rotor off hammer it out, if its hitting the spindle you can sometimes get away with loosining the axle nut and pull out the hub a bit and slide it out

second that

also if its too long, cut it down shorter if necessary

another tip when putting a new one back on, grind the side of the bottom part of the stud a little so u can slip it in without having to remove the hub

Could do that, cant picture in my head the amount of clearance, shaving the stud like suggested is ok...You need a slide hammer to pull the spindle out a bit...you could also just cut the top off the old one to remove it and then decide how to get the new one in after..
