You probably bought the ball joint tool as your post said the Harbor freight tool worked perfectly

I don't know if they all come out that easy, but that was my experience. |

Instead of using washers, you might consider using a specialized tool:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ETUD22 One of the reviews on Amazon specifically says this worked great on a BRZ. I'd also be curious to learn if there's a better way/tool to pull an old stud other than basically whacking it with a hammer. |

Washers are perfectly fine.
The tool adds no real value. |

Ok, the HF ball joint tool is probably better than bashing the hub. https://www.harborfreight.com/3-4-qu...tor-99849.html I now remember bashing the rotor to get it off. My car's at 50k with OEM brakes Maybe it's time to replace the pads. Rotors should be fine. How do you check rotor width? Are there markings on the rotor? |

Yes, like in the video. It works easy for install and removal. I have upgraded all of my studs with the same tool. FYI... You will also need a big socket (36mm IIRC) for the rear axle nut if you are replacing the rear studs with ones that are longer than OEM +5mm.

I used this tool. Works perfectly. I had about 3-4 OEM Studs break on me and use Dorman now.
