try welding some new nuts on. name of the game is if they snap they snap and its drill time.

sometimes if you can break the nut off, cut a slit in the rusty nut with a dremel then open up with a screwdriver or chisel. you can then take the header off and get a stud remover on a windy gun.

top tip when putting a stud back in.. dont and instead use a bolt and nut. put the nut on the bolt then put the bolt in like a stud then tighten the nut against the collar.
