"Reply to update" That might work if the shank of the bolt is the right diameter and is soft enough steel to thread. If it is hard or too small, it won't work. If the bolt is soft but too small in diameter, you can find a smaller size, SAE or metric, that will result in full threads. I would still try heat to get the stud out. A propane torch is not hot enough. If you do heat the stud, don't try to turn it when it is real hot. The heat weakens the steel and you will break it off. Heat it hot, and let it cool for a while. Then you can put some force on it.
