Vice and block of wood or metal, making a pseudo-press?

You could also try putting a pipe (with an ID slightly bigger and slightly longer than the stud )on the front side of the hub and with a vice or large c clamp squeeze the stud back through the hub.

Don't know if you get the visual, from my decription

No other way to get the pistons in other than some big pliers, or a clamp.
