I am trying to remove the manual hub on my 95 Pathfinder. It has 6 allen wrench screws that hold it on. Unfortunately they are wayyyyy over torqued and one of them is stripped. Any suggestions on how to remove this screw??

Go to home depot or lowe's and ask for a stripped screw bit. It basically bites into the trashed bolt and unscrews it. It may or may not work depending on how rusted/torqued/both it is. Might want to put some salycyclic acid on it or "Ease-out" or something like that to loosen it up.
