I've had to do that twice in the past much easer replacing the lug once you get the wheel off. Think i rembember using an air grinder and auger bit to remove the nut and stud down to where the wheel could be removed
Just drill it the middle of the stud to a 1/2 and give it a good pry and it will break right off a whole 10 min job. No need to open the diff and grind the stud work smarter and harder.

Yeah I can't keep a drill bit straight in it much less a center drill, I'm just gonna torch the stud tomorrow, the rim is junk anyway now
