running into a stuck front CV axle on my X5..

I have the old rotor that I can use. Plan on running out to buy 1 inch bolts. I worry that a 1 inch threaded pipe flange will become the weakest link...I think I can find an iron pipe flange...Is that what I should buy?

I'll buy some good 1" nuts too...If the flange does strip I'll put a bolt in front of it.
