Yeah and what I was saying was that the short studs can be swapped over without the removal of the flange being required. But with the longer studs they foul on the hub carrier hence the removal of the flange being required to fit the long studs, and when you remove the flange they tend to pull out the most outer inner bearing race rendering the bearing useless imo. Also in the case of the 3dr the front hub flanges are getting rare now so its best to keep on top of things such as wheel bearings just to preserve the life of the flange.
