I was able to slide hammer it all back in... I was wondering if there were any repercussions to pulling that out? I think I probably should have regreased it but I didn't have any at the time.
Did a quick drive around and everything sounded fine. Anything I should note by pulling the whole bearing out?

Isnt that terrible for your bearing? How's it holding up so far? Do you remember what size slide hammer you used??
Trying to picture it in my head.. but i guess the axle nut would hold everything in place anyways rights?
I gave up on my rear studs. Tried using a jaw puller and ended up breaking that. I think Ill just bring it to the shop when it gets a bit warmer.
