any ideas on loosen two nuts stuck on a studs ?

okay, ,one dumb mistake of mine...
I was tightening the arp studs into the block using the two nuts method...

well, I did, but I forgot to put a closed ended wrench on the first nut, and strated to tightened it....

well, now the two nuts stuck on the head studs ? any option of loosening one ?

thanks

stick a deepwell socket on the long bar.. and inside that socket.. put another socket backwards so that only enough to grip the first nut is exposed... walla...

it won't work..
the nuts is a flared 12 points nuts...

F*&K, I am hating life, hating my car, all because of my stupid *** mistakes....

it doesn;t pay to be an **** bastard......
first mistakes : taking the nuts off the studs.
second mistakes: doing the two nuts method....
what's the third one.....?

I knew I should've bought an TL or 4 runner....

Can't you just loosen the top one? Then once you get the whole stud out again you can put a wrench on the bottom side...

yeah, I got it off, I screwed the whole studs in to the block and use a big *** pliers to rotate the bottom nut clockwise ( like to tightened it) and that gave some slacks between the two nuts...

thanks guys..
