Studs Snapped

[CalumDaly]

Was trying to take the control arm nuts off my mk2 leon and 2 of the studs snapped and 1 started to spin with the nut. I was just wondering what parts i need to buy to replace these.
One top mount bolt is also spinning instead of threading out and was wondering how to get it out.
Thanks.

Those are the 3 bolts that hold the balljoint in. A new balljoint will come with new bolts.

However, it's usually better to stick an entire new arm in, you'll get all new arm, bushes and balljoint

Is the car up in the air or on the floor?

You might be able to remove that one bolt if the car is the floor with the weight pushing down on that bolt (keeping it from spinning)

Its best to try and clean the threads before attempting to wind a nut of over crusty old threads - lean't from experience with my anti-roll bar drop links!

Yep, WD40 or similar and then a wire brush or better still a brush attachment for a drill. If the nut binds, stop, tighten it back up, then clean again and reattempt.

The stuck nut, angle grinder or hacksaw if you don't have one.
