Yep, taken out of context, that did sound pretty bad.
Put more of that penetration fluid on tonight. Then work on it tomorrow
with heat...prolly a little less will do ya then.

Prolly not.
The usual technique (that I know of) is to put two nuts on the stud and
use the second nut to prevent the first from turning and then just
unscrew the stud. But since the threads are awol, vise grips or grinding
flat spots to use a crescent wrench might be the trick. Or you could try
cutting slightly smaller threads for a smaller nut.

Two of the bad studs MAY have enough threads left to try the double-nut
trick.

eew, taken out of context, my previous sentence is kinda scary :).

I just spent a bit of time dremeling flat spots on one of 'em, and it
came out with a goodly measure of heat and penetrating fluid. I haven't
tried the other yet...but I've probably already gotten my RDA of
penetrating vapors.
