Most people strip those HF bolts because they fail to lubricate the bolt. I use a punch hydraulic as shown in this Youtube video to remove and replace press in bearings. The bolt that comes with the HF wheel bearing kit is strong enough in tensile force which is what my punch press is applying to the bearing to remove it from the hub. I also put the bearing in the freezer over night to "Shrink it" enough so less force is required to push it back into the hub.
