There is a real nifty poor man's hub puller on the Alpine website.  I think I'm going to have to contact that guy I gave my Alpine rear end to .

You can notch the flange slightly with a hacksaw or grinder and get the new
standard size stud in without removing the hub.

Done it in a hotel car park in Marrakesh 11 years ago in about 20 minutes.

Thanks Tony.  Yeah, I will definitely get the right puller and soak it with
PB blaster or something similar for a while before attempting to pull the
hubs.  Good to know 3 lugs should hold for my ~ 20 mile trip back to my
garage, saves me the trouble of putting in a temporary short one.
