Lube the splines...

Sorry, I don't recall the size on those, but they were common metric size nuts available at the hardware store

I had issues with them, I bought proper stud remover and installer, those nuts and bolts slipped on me, I remember running to other city to get new one, I even ordered blacked/so called hardened ones from overseas but that also slipped,

just be careful where you getting those from.

or get a proper stud remover with 1/2inch drive

I guess I better order some new studs just in case and do all this whenever they arrive.

finally, after hours and hours of research and going through reviews etc, I found this brand tools and purchased both of them to work with studs.

I have the 2nd one pictured. Used it a number of times when I worked in the trade. It works well except for those studs in tight locations. Because of the amount of offset when placing on a stud for removal, it can interfere with other items. Where there is a lot of room, works well.
