Yea, I just learned about that yesterday. My impact wrench was not up to the job so I had to get creative without damaging the studs.

I used lug nuts and a breakbar to hold the hub steady so I could tighten down the new stud. All in all, pretty easy without an impact wrench as long as I sprayed some lubricant on the base of the new stud. I think I did the fronts without impact wrench in about 1 hour and a half or less.
