When was the last time you changed your rear hubs?

My axle was stuck in my hub, and even after applying pb blaster daily for a week and a half, and taking it to 3 different shops that used their 20 ton presses on it, it still wouldn't budge. I had to buy a new knuckle/hub from a wrecked miata to complete my torsen swap.
You can try to separate them, but my advice would be to just buy another axle and knuckle, and a new hub and wheel bearing. Don't forget anti-seize on the axle splines.

ART states they use ARP studs (at least the ones ordered through Flyin' Miata) which is what currently resides on my track bitch.
Flyin' Miata : Chassis : Suspension components : Blueprinted front wheel hub
I apologize, I ordered my ART hubs with ARP studs. But you can order "stock" or "ARP studs" and I ordered mine with ARP.
So was it "stock" studs that broke on you?

Maybe ART no longer offers their house brand studs? I have no idea as we tossed the installed and NIB spares we had and switched to ARP's after that race.

Hmm, interesting. I just went out and checked my car, the front studs from the ART hubs that are supposed to be "ARP studs" are black and shorter. The rear studs from my Planet-Miata rebuild spindles/hubs are also supposed to be ARP, but are gold and a bit longer.
Does ARP only sell gold studs? I'm kind of unhappy if didn't actually get ARP when that's what I thought I was paying for.

I'm trying to gather the parts for the rear hub swap in preparation of installing the TSE BBPK and need some clarification. I've already done the fronts, but have never done the rears on a Miata.
Help me with what parts I need to order to refresh the rear corners.

33-061 (includes 33-062)
33-048
33-047
?

33-047 (or FLAPS equivalent)
reuse 33-048
remove 26-261
replace 33-062 with ARP studs
33-061
33-042
Remember that ALL new hubs are the 94-05 style, so when you're ordering ARP studs for new hubs, order them for the 94-05 rears.
I just put several sets of ARP studs in stock and I'll get them on our website in a day or two - $104 per set of 4.

I have a Mazda hub floating around we were using for R&D. I'll try to post some photos of the Dorman part and the Mazda part together later this week.

What hubs are people getting when they order the Dorman hubs?
I ordered two hubs at once from Amazon and here is what I got.
One on the left says made in Taiwan has OEM looking studs with 1990-1993 knurl diameter and two threaded holes in the flange.
One on the right says made in China has black studs with 1994+ knurl diameter and no threaded holes in the flange.
