has anyone change these studs out before ? only have 3 out of the 5 studs holding my turbo mani.. ill get pictures tomm.

 

take it to the machine shop and get it redrilled. this time look for a stronger studs. its a b!tch but it worked on my civic before.

 

how did you broke it? did you have any accident or something? post some pics

 

well the bolt was still on there but looked weird so when i went to touch it the bolt just fell off so i look at it and the bolt was like a dark purple ish color and a friend said that it got to hot or something like that but ill put up some pictures

 

How far down did it break off, if you have at least 1/4" left you can use my patented trick Take a nut thats slightly bigger than the shat, slip it over it, mig weld the ____ out of the inside of the nut to the shaft, remove with socket, ive gotten many a borken bolt out this way, but if it broke of flush with the head than only option is to machine it out.

 

uhhhh which way did he go george which way did he go...... derrrr derrrrrrrrrr

 

no its flush with the manifold i may have about 1/4" left but no mig welder haha any other option someone told me i can use the 2 bolt trick or however you do it haha i have to go back and read it again

 

Go to Toyota and get new studs. Take some vice grips and latch on to them and unscrew them from the block. I had one break about 1/4 inch from the block and that's what I did.

 

We are coming out with longer, beefier stainless steel exhaust studs for the turbo fellas. Stay tuned.

 

staying tuned
