Removing studs

[Clarky]

Has anybody removed the studs from the front plate, whats the best way without damage, stud extractor or any other method.

the proper tools i reckon, you`ll just end up damaging it otherwise bud.

wind one nut right down to the Bottom of the threads then wind another nut up to it (so you have two Nuts on the same stud) then Tighten the Bottom one against the top one and it will get to a point where the Nut will be tighter than the Stud in the Plate and it will undo.

To get the nuts off use two Spanners.

easy... Just takes time.

it may be worth WD40\'ing the Base of the Stud too just to get it going.

If its the Water pump Studs, there not usaly Tight and you could possably use Pliers (just not on the threads)

If you need to remove a stud just politely ask me to leave
