Do you double nut the 1/4" studs and hope....or am I missing something, 1970 S headlight and yokes...
 
There's not enough thread to double nut. Here's how I do it:

First Loctite the nut on loosely. Then use an impact to remove.

Sometimes I need to heat up the lower yoke a little. Use only as much Loctite and heat as you need. It might take a few tries.

Once removed, heat the nut to break free the Loctite and use a quality stud remover tool which won't damage the stud. Use it to hold stud shoulder while you unscrew the nut.

I use this tool all the time:
