How to get studs out?

[ZeroLogic]

I'm going to get my cylinder plated. I want to take the studs out to save money so they wouldn't have to do it. How can I remove the studs and reintall them? Its a Yz125 by the way.

Use 2 nuts. Put the first one on, then put a second one over top of it. Turn the bottom one like you were going to loosen it and it'll tighten against the one above it therefore causing your whole stud to turn. I suck at explaining it...

if they are not threaded all the way u could use vise grips

Ah, I forgot about the good ol two nuts trick. Thanks! Yea, their threaded. How would I go to put them back in? Just thread them in with lock-tite?

There is a tool you can get for a wratchet. It works kinda like a monkey wrench. They are made specifically for gettin bolts out with stripped heads.
