Replacing front wheel studs on a '92 with ABS- advice sought. 200 1992

From past posts it looks like I have to grind down the flange of the wheel stud to sneak it in past some ABS part. Here's what I found in the 740 FAQ...

"If you have an abs sensor wheel (looks like a gear with flat cogs) on the front hub you will have to grind one side of the new stud's flange to get it in. You'll have to use a grinding wheel. This wheel is stamped steel and you would destroy it if you try to remove. Then put a nut on the stud and crank on it till the stud seats itself into the hub."

My question is this: how do I get the old wheel stud out, and what parts, if any, do I have to remove? Thanks guys!

    Yup- grind it off or use a cut-off tool. Even my local Volvo techs at the dealer tell me they do it that way.

    The advice you found in the FAQ is good - it's how I did it. To get the old one out, cut it off and tap it out.

    You'll probably need to remove wheel, brake caliper, and rotor, to get to it, at least. I don't think I'd want to do it while all that was still in the way.
