This for my front hub. Im trying to remove it so I can replace it. The holes for the studs are rounded out =(I got the cap off the hub and clip out but how do I get the bolt off? Im lost on what tool I could use. After removing do I just hammer it out?Last question: Does anyone know how much a hub for an S13 would cost at the dealership? My last hope is to weld the studs in there temporarily until I can get the hub.

The large center nut should be a 1.25" or about a 32mm... I used a 1/2 inch impact to take them off but a torque wrench will work as well.

Once the nut is off you can just slide the hub off and slide the new one on.
