I need to replace the studs at the bottom of the headers because four of the somehow snapped off with me using a ratchet.:help Does anyone know where to get these studs for OBDII headers for less than $15 :eek: per stud?:help :help
headers to head or headers to exhaust?

Well, pop all of them out and use a combination of nuts and bolts. It will save you the trouble of it happening again. Next time use some PBlaster or whatever it's called on the nuts. Just spray it on and let it sit for a good 10 minutes. It will save you the hassle of having to replace the studs.

Yeah, replace them with nuts and bolts. :buttrock

That's what I was going to do, but it is a PITA to get a wrench up there to hold the bolt. I'll call some junk yards to see if they have any.
It's going to be just as much of a PITA to get a new stud in there, probably. Aren't they press-fit?

They go in enough that you can get a bolt on the end and tighten it to pull it down.
