the bottom 2 are studs but the top of the triangle has a welded nut. i think they did this on the 03 , 04 cars. as for taking the axles out , it would make the job a lot easier and less messy . i would have taken the axles off if i was going to replace the wheel bearings . pumping myself with coffee to build up some steam to finish the job . also gonna change the plugs and tubes while i am already in there .

a little trick that helped me out . the cv boots can be tough to get on. i heated them with a hair dryer , they went on a lot easier warmed up. then again it is not exactly warm hear in massachusetts in my unheated garage.
