It's there to prevent your rear wheels from being installed to the front. You can remove that stud, it isn't holding anything in.

If I remove it, do you guys think a spacer will still go on? Even after I remove the bolt,there's still a piece protruding out! Any input before I jack up my car again lol

Would I be able to remove the stud too or just the bolt?

Remove the bolt. The "bushing" is only held in place by the bolt. Once the bolt and bushing are removed there will be nothing but a threaded hole left.
