That sucks if you have to drill the dust shield or whatever. You think they would have a opening near the spindle/dust shield where you can knock the stud out, other GM’s are like that.

just because its a corvette it isn’t a space ship or anything. studs are a basic procedure, and ANY shop should be more than capable of this.
