Sweet, I just checked online at autozone and they have the parts. 32.99 for the bearing and 1.99 a stud, I'm going to do all five while I'm at it. Now I just have to get that hub out of there. Is it in there with pressure? Or do I just remove that rear bolt and it slides out? And do I really need a bench or will it just make the job easier? I've never done this so i really don't know

Thanks for sharing.

Wow, I'm surprised there isn't a little section where you could rotate the spindle and pop out the studs one by one. The same thing happened to my Z but luckily there was a spot to pop out the studs.

honestly, id drill a hole in the backing plate and just knock the stud out...but thats just me

And use a torque wrench to put everything back together so that you don't break any more bolts.

Take the knuclke to a shop, the hub does not slide out it has to be pressed out.

Update: I got it all good and fixed $9 and 4 hours later. Here's how it went, I was looking at the studs and was wondering why 1 stud was brand new and 4 others were rusty and old. I was sure the previous owner wouldnt go through the trouble of getting the hub removed just to replace 1 stud, comon sense would be to replace all 5 while your at it. So I inspected the new stub that was on there and voila, in deed it was a new stud but it wasn't installed by removing the hub. An edge of the studs head was grinded smooth to give it clearance and let it slide into place without removing the hub. It seemed like a good idea so I followed in those footsteps. I grinded out the broken studs and and made a smoothside on the new ones and banged them in, all worked well and I have my 5 brand new studs now. And I know it doesn't seem like a good idea because its not "professional" but it works for me. And for those flammers flame on me all you want but I'm just sharing this update for someone who maybe has a broken stud and doesn't feel like paying 200+ just for that when they can do it for $3.
Here's a pic of the old stud, the new ones are just like that but of course longer and new.
