Well welcome. and a stud on a drum is basily the same as all cars. AN some common sense. Take the drum off put the stud you want to take out at 12 O clock there well be a hole idk i forgot but if there isNT it well come out easy. ( using a hammer and wacking it once or twice) Pops out replace put a castle nut bigger then the stud then run a spare lug nut you have laying around and use a impact gun to hammer on her till she is flush. Takes bout 15 minutes if that. ME anyway since i replace almost every stud on my accord Lol. easy guy. just start doing it and youll get it as you move along. Like i said COMMON SENSE. k thanks by

ps. reason why you use a castle nut that is bigger then the stud is for the Lug nut to have a smooth straight guide so the stud is sucked in flush.

welcome

Usually when there is absolutely nothing written about it, it's either very easy or so difficult, no one's bothered to try.
