I snapped the top off of an exhaust stud a few days ago. There is thread left, but not too much. I have tried to double-nut it out, but there isn't enough engagement to get 2 nuts lined up and tight.

I tried some red lock-tite, and let it sit on a nut on the stud, but it came right off.

I need some tips or tricks to getting that stud out.

TIA
