long wheel studs in rear (fc)

the rear studs holes in my fc are all shallow, and autozone studs were too soft to cut into the hole, so i bought some arp studs. problem is, the way the hub is designed (where you have to slip the studs in at an angle) prevents me from putting in the studs witout removing hub from the spindle. any ideas or suggestions on how to get these on would be appreciated.

Just remember that you will need 2 new rear wheel bearings, as they split when being pressed out. There is no other way to put in new wheel studs, trust me I have tried every other way. Looking at putting a notch into the wheel flange next time they are apart.
