I assume that you're asking about the rear wheel studs on a TR-4? If so,
you're in for some fun. The rear wheel studs are screwed into the hub
from the outside, then peened over (or welded, like the ones that I
found on *my* TR-4 after they failed...). The only way that I've been
able to get them off is to remove the hub first, then grind off the
peened over part - then they come out just fine. Of course, I've got
access to a proper Churchill hub tool, which makes removing the hub a
lot easier.
Good luck,
