I snapped the top off of an exhaust stud a few days ago. There is thread left, but not too much. I have tried to double-nut it out, but there isn't enough engagement to get 2 nuts lined up and tight.
I tried some red lock-tite, and let it sit on a nut on the stud, but it came right off. I need some tips or tricks to getting that stud out. TIA |

It's really loud too hehe.... so on reassembly what should be used to keep the stud from seizing again? anti seize? It wasn't so much that it was seized, but that it broke off at the top and I couldn't get any torque on it. Once I was able to get a reasonable amount of torque on it, it freed right up. |
