Default heater box studs spinning

trying to remove a heater/A/C box from a 94 xj, 3 of the studs (through the fire wall) are spinning.
I am parting the 94 out,, is it worth the effort to save this box?
Can the studs be repaired or replaced once I DO get the box out?


Thanks,
Slack

Sure, save the 'box'.


Grab the tip of the stud on the firewall side with vise grips while wrenching off the nut. JB Weld the studs in place when you get the box out.
