Default replacing wheel studs

One of my wheel studs is messed up and needs to be replaced. I looked in my Helms and didn't see anything about replacing one without taking the whole hub off. If thats the case, I need to take it somewhere and does this car require a press to replace it?

Thanks for any info.

You are going to need a new hub and if its a rear hub a new bearing, as the bearing comes apart when you press out the hub from the spindle.

They will need a bearing press.

The studs are pressed into the hub, I guess if you could get the hub off cleanly you could just press in a new stud.

I have a old hub here with good studs you are welcome to have it. Actually one of the studs fell out,.
