Default What's the double nut jam method? (Maximum Boost)

I've been reading Corky Bell's Maximum Boost and in chapter 18 he talks about wrenching studs into place to connect the turbo to header and says to use the double nut jam method. I only wish I knew how this is done. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Its so you can wrench studs in. If you just put one nut on when you tryed to wrench it in itll just turn the not. Put two together and tighen them ito each other, tighten the 2nd one while loosening the first one. This will bind the two nuts togeter so you can then use a wrench to turn the the stud with jammed nuts locked on the threads. When your done take off both nuts.
