front drums w/o hubs?

Don' know whut ta tell ya. I usually respect what you have to say but in this case I do have to question

I've seen hubs that were CRACKED from removing studs

I've seen hubs / studs that had to be tacked in to keep them from turning because they were driven out and evidently enlarged the holes so the splines would not catch

"Back in" the days when part of my job was drums and rotors, there's been days when about all I did was turn rotors and drums, hour after hour. This was long before many shops in our small town had their own lathes, and long before the new influx of cheap Chineseo replacements.
