Mikey,
Shoot a bit of WD-40 around the base of the studs, front and back, screw
a sacrificial nut onto the stud, just nearly flush with the outer end,
and tap out with a hammer. You may want to remove the nut while the stud
still has some grip, depending on how hard you had to "tap" it. Hope
this helps,
Larry
