Wheel Stud Removal
 

First time Honda owner and new to the forum. I searched the forums but had no luck finding my issue thought I would give a post a try. I have a 98 Accord 4 Dr V6. WhenI bought the car the one of the front wheel studs had been crossed threaded so I decided to replace it myself thinking I would have no issue. Removed the wheel, rotor, and got the brake assembly out of the way. I thought I would be able to knock the stud out at that point but it appears the angle is too steep and something from behind it gets in the way. Do I have to remove the whole assemble or should I be able to keep hammering and get this sucker out?

Any help would be appreciated!!

You can't look behind the hub plate and see the stud hitting the knuckle?
If you have a die grinder with a cut off 4" wheel you could cut the old stud in 2.
On the older accords you could grind a side of the head off ofthe new stud to get the stud to slip in past the knuckle.
But if that won't work you'll need to pull the bearing apart.
