Wheel stud replacement

[kz]

Anyone did that himself ?

I have a messed up thread - I have re-cut it using a die, but stud needs to be eventually replaced.

Manual requires pulling a hub off and pressing out/in studs - I do not have hydraulic press to do it. Any alternatives ?

Shop (that on Saturday - after taking my car in - figured they don't have the stud and wasted hour and a half of my time) wants >$300 to do it (Ford Dealer).

Any insights will be appreciated.

Not sure if this will fit, perhaps a tie-rod-end tool would work.

Have another thought - hub assembly https://www.tascaparts.com/oem-part...meT0yMDE1JnQ9Z3QtcHJlbWl1bSZlPTUtMGwtdjgtZ2Fz

seems to be a hub with all 5 studs (which separately cost ~$12 each to actually they're more expensive than hub itself). I need to confirm whether the hub includes the studs and will replace the entire hub. Genius ! ;-)

Get a new stud and about 5 thick flat washers to go on the stud then stick a nut on it and run it down with an impact until the stud pulls fully into the hub.
