Getting strange vibes from front end again

I was checking the left front wheel for brake/ball joint issues and noticed bad tire cupping on the inner tread. I had just replaced the bearing assembly and rotated the tires 1000 miles ago. The rear tires are cupped the same.

My buddy then points out that there are no weights on that wheel. or on any of the wheels. Can't tell were the weights were because I washed the inside of the wheels last rotation. So I believe all 4 tires have been out of balance for a year or more, which for me is 5000 miles. tires are 315/75-16 terra grapplers with 8/32" left.

Can't see the trees though the forest sometimes.... DOOH!

When you replaced your bearing assembly, how did you get the four studs out of the old assembly and into your new one?
