    Anything special to know besides bash the old one out with a hammer and suck the new one in with an impact? Axel doesn't have to come out does it?

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    No it doesn't. You may just have to finagle the studs in but you should be good.

    ^^^This, very simple, i like to set up a couple of washers when i go to pull in the new one, but other than that, it's easy.

    No, You may have to rotate the axle a bit when inserting the studs, but the brake shoes can be left in place.
