    I hear it is common to snap these three studs when removing the exhaust manifold. Well a very broke family member did it too. I'm ordering a new manifold gasket as well as the flange gasket and EGR gasket from Rock Auto. I would appreciate getting help with the stud part number or size. Are these studs M10x1.25x40mm? My plan is to remove the manifold and try to extract the broken studs.

    Right now he is running with one stud holding it together.
    He has his 4 and 5 year old riding with him on the weekends which has me especially worried. I'm sure the exhaust gasses leaking into the truck aren't kind to anyone.
    Thanks

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    Toyota has nice studs with a Female Torx (?)on the end to help install them

    Along with nice stainless lock nuts that is the correct size I am not sure about the length I would have to measure to be sure

    Thanks, these are the three studs connecting the exhaust manifold to the first cat pipe.
    I can’t seem to find them on the Toyota parts website.
