I know at work when you replace a stud you pull the axles or bearings on new cars and press them in .Ive been wrenching since the 60s and as a Master tech for over 30 years.Ive never seen anyone take say a frt hub bearing out to replace a stud.Just smack them out and use an inverted lug and washers to pull the new one in.Thats on cars that get wheels taken off all the time and see a 100K miles.Never had one break or stretch.I also use antisieze.Best stuff ever made.I believe I used Mr Gaskets on our cars for the rears and Moroso for the frt disc.If you pull the axles one at a time just stuff a rag in the end and no oil comes out.I have 2 pieces of plastic that fit the ends so if any oil is there it stops it.Rocky
