How To Remove f@@ked Endplate Stud?

[Bilko]

It's the thread on the stud. Going to try to get a nut welded on.

Thanks for the help lads.

try and heat the casing around the stud and as its nearly cool spray some wd40 around it it might just suck in there a little and help free the stud ive used mole grips before to remove studs but you need to be carefull as you might snap it off also filling a flat on each side to accept a 6mm spaner might work again go slowly when im at work i always use heat first even just to soften the oxide that might be between the 2 objects

Thank you Shocky. I got distracted today replacing my exhaust. I'll try your technique tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice.

if you weld a nut on put your spanner on it to undo and apply a little preasure say with just your thumb and get some one with a center punch or pin punch and small hammer to strike the cente of the stud a few times this might just "shock " the stud enough to get it turning, if using a socket make sure its a 1/4 drive as you need some touch sensitivity when your doing things like this , oh and good luck

i use to use something like this for both insertion and extraction when building radio mounting frames i used a speed brace for insertion and a tee bar for extraction

Must say, that is Steve's second name.

Sorted. A mate came round with the welder and welded a nut on the stud. Got the stud out with ease.

Thanks for the advice.
