What tool do I need? Exhaust stud
I have removed the headers on my 3.6L motor and would like to exchange a few of the original exhaust studs. I am not sure what tool to use. Can someone make a recommendation and possible link. Also, do I need heat to remove the factory bolts? They look like they are in fairly good condition.

If your studs are in good shape i owuld just run a thread chaser over them. that is a high risk project replacing studs. Bust on eoff and you are in a world of hurt.

This tool works very well but don't be aggressive. They can still break.
