How do I remove the studs from the cylinder jug? (cr125)

I'm replacing my jug on my cr125 and I have a new one. How do I remove the studs that hold the head onto the cylinder so that I can transfer them onto my new jug? Same question with the exhaust manifold studs.

Double nut the stud. I use a cylinder nut on the bottom and a nylock nut on top. Tighten both nuts together and twist the thing off. Might need to add some heat to soften any loc-tite that might have been used.

There's probably better methods, but it works for me.

There's stud removal tools for that. I got a set off my snap on truck.
I'm sure you can buy them for other tool places or online etc.

Double nut works as well but it's nice to have tool too

God forbid I should have the right tool for the job.
It was 50 bucks for a 4 piece set.

Thanks guys. I was able to remove the studs using the 2 bolt method. Thanks once again!

The stud removers I've seen used in our Nissan dealership "bite" into the stud so to speak. They kind of booger up the threads a little making reuse a touchy thing.
