the 88's use lug BOLTS so no studs. there will be threaded holes for your current lug bolts to go into, as well as a single threaded hole for the alighment pin. the bearing hub setup unbolts from the axle, you will need to remove the 32mm nut with LB/FT abunch to loosen it, I believe you will have to take the caliper and (maybe not the bracket, know you can change rotor with the bracket on on rears only but forget if you can take the hub off with bracket in place, you will be able to figure it out...) it's mounting plate off to clear them when removing the hub. there are two p/n's for the hub 89 71 095 for the non-abs hub (which I believe your 88 is) and 89 71 111 for ABS which I believe your 88 does not have. It's pretty straight forward. it slipes onto the tapered end of the axle and then the 32mm nut snugs it home. suggest you pull a wheel and look at the pads and rotors, if you are going to order the hub and need either pads or rotors you can order and replace them at the same time as you will have to remove to do the deal on the hub. you can use a screw driver to lever the silver dome cap off the center to see the 32mm nut. 1/2 drive with 2 foot breaker bar and sometimes the handle from a floor jack to slide over the breaker bar, all this done on the deck ala wheel lugs, do those then too, just crack everyone loose.
