No need to replace the hub just the studs. The come in from the back and are splined to prevent the stud from turning with the nut. Remove the hub --drive out the broken studs and put the new ones in from the rear and drive them back in. Get the studs from the dealer spares or a good tyre retailer.
to start with, take wheel and brake hub off of car. now you can see the studs, use a punch to drive out old stud if need be. but support backside of axle plate so it does not break! when stud is out, put in new one from the backside of axle plate. to pull it in place, i use a wheel lug nut, turn it so flat side is down against plate. draw the stud in with a wrench or socket. if you can not get stud in, just remove one of the brake shoes for more room. have a good day !! they sell the studs at any auto parts store.
remove wheel and brake assembly, drive broken stud through back off the hub.
Put new stud through hole and use a spacer and an old lug nut to pull stud till its seated in hub.
To remove that hub you will destroy the bearing. Because you have to remove it with a slide hammer. It is not necessary to remove the hub to change the studs. Remove the caliper, caliper bridge and rotor. Using a hammer simply knock out the stud or studs you want to replace. Put new stud in and using a sleeve that has a bigger diameter than the stud (I use a big nut, like the one on the axle) put big nut over stud and screw lug nut on stud and tighten until head of stud is flush with hub. Re-install rotor, caliper bridge and caliper. Hope this helps.
Only if there is an Acsess Hole Directly Behind the STUD'S PUNCH THE Broken SHORT one OUT But there May Not Be Enough ROOM FOR the NEW LONG STUD to go in between the HUB & Rotor Check this FIRST If you see GOOD CLEARANCE TO GET The new STUD in Then just Drive the old one out , and Use A LARGER than Stud Nut Or Washers to Pull New Stud Threw some Before Putting Wheel on. Then Put Wheel on And Tighten Wheel , Retorque after a Few Hundred Miles.
