Starting making noise, thought it was new winter tires at first. Eventually jacked up the rear and found the bearings had a ton of play so bought the parts and special tools to remove and replace. Ruined the old studs and some lug nuts with no progress before I gave up and took it to a shop. They tried heat, slide hammers, etc but ended up having to remove the entire knuckle so they could smash on it with a sledge. Not super rusty, just a bit but with the tolerances, more than enough to make it too hard for me to do at home.
