DIY: Front Stud replacement/ Spacer install

May I ask why you used antiseize on the back mating surface of the rear spacer? For alignment with the hubcentric ring? Also, were the stock studs difficult to remove?

Also, were the stock studs difficult to remove? I had to change the studs on my toyota once and I really had to hammer them a lot to get them out. I was afraid I was going to damage the wheel bearing.

I've had spacers "weld" themselves to hubs before due to corrosion

A few whacks, not hard at all.
