Im replacing mines right now but for a FC.
For oem studs you might be able to do it with out removing hub but not sure for the FD.
For extended studs you have to remove the hubs.
Bang the old ones out and put the new ones in by using your lug nuts to pull them through the holes or just hit the back of the studs.
For the bearings im not sure if you "need" to replace them unless there damage like mine bc i was hammering it to separate hubs from the axles

^^incorrect, you NEED to pull the hubs out for the rears..... the manual says replace the bearing but my shop swapped one of the studs and i never gave them a bearing so im assuming the same one was used........? just wanted confirmation
