Cat studs rusted how to remove?

[snow patrol]

Hi All,

I need to re fit my cats but when removed the studs are corroded, and i would like to replace them, how are they removed, are they pressed in from the rear?

Any tips to remove the old stud much appreciated..

If badly corroded they may need grinded off

Have a look here from post #65 http://www.nsxcb.co.uk/testvb/showthread.php?t=6702&page=7

Thanks when the studs are ground off how do you remove the remaining bit left in the cat flange?

When you remove the stud the bolt can be pushed out.

You can the replace with either OEM or something else of your choice
