Jeff,
Remove the brake caliper,remove the rotor,knock out the old stud and replace
it
by pushing the new one in and using a stack of washers and a nut to
tighten/seat the stud back into
the rotor.
Then put it all back together.

Once you get the hub off you can always take it down to the shop to get the
studs replaced.
