My  compressor is puny so I couldn't use the impact,  but since it was VERY

another answer to this puzzle but now I know  it  can be done w/o pulling the 
spindle/lug flange.  Any  brilliant ideas out  there?



Put the wheel on the other side and let it down to the ground.
 
With the tranny in gear your set....
 
Unless it's  a PG then it's back to sweat and strain
 
You might try a large C clamp and a short pipe nipple (a bit longer than  the 
stud comes
through)
