I want to clean up the engine block ground (negative battery cable where it bolts to the block). It appears that the stud has a nut, then the terminal, then another nut, and since it's on the firewall side, moisture and heat have rusted them together. Is that stud holding down anything important, or can I simply disconnect the cable from the battery and unbolt the rusted assembly en masse?

not holding anything but the ground...replaced mine yesterday...make sure you put alot of penetrating oil...at times it felt like the whole stud was going to break off because it was so rusted...have fun
