You have to get where the axle is drive the old one out and use an impact wrench to install the new one. That means taking the brakes apart then pushing stud out rear axle shown

If the head of the stud on the backside is round, I believe you have to press it out. If the head of the stud is a hex head, you screw it out. My database didn't have anything on this. I did look at your hub assembly in my partsbook, it showed the head of the stud to be round.
