You can replace the studs individually by pressing out the old and pressing in the new. The complication is that the studs are swedged in place after insertion which requires a swedgingpunch and a press to use it in.I've heard BAD things about the punches from the "A" suppliers - maybe someone else knows different, or where to get a good one.If somebody's already welded the studs inside the drum (it happens) then a new hub is in order.

The drum should be eyeballed for excessive run-out after replacing the studs.
