Ditto on finding someone who knows what they are doing.
Do you have steel drums or cast iron ones? I'm not sure new studs are made for steel drums any more but the longer ones for cast iron can be modified to fit. When it comes to removing the old studs, DON'T just drive them out of the hub - you'll ruin it. You must cut away the old swage first, then they will come out with little resistence.
