Default Rear Wheel Hub

How do I remove this? Got a stripped wheel stud and I can't get the hub off.

You need to pull the cover off and remove the c clips. The axles will then slide out and you can install the new studs. You can cut a few corners and do it without removing the axles, but it's not recommended.

Its really not that hard, just makes you wish you had a lift in your garage.
Drain the rear, remove the cover, take a 7mm wrench and loosen the screw that holds the middle piece. Take out the middle piece. Push the axles in, remove the C clips. Axles should slide out.
