Title: broken body mount bolt
Post by: padler on April 30, 2006, 08:40:46 PM

just putting my body lift in and have to get out a few broken bolts. Just wondering what the easiest way to get the broken bolts out is. Was going to try an ez out but not sure if it will bee strong enough, Let me know what you think

I snapped an ez-out in a heart beat when I was trying to take the stud out of my cross member... I've seen a couple others break as well... don't think I'll trust them to work in much else but plastic at this point.

g'luck

weld a nut onto the head of the bold, then use an impact gun to back it out, works on TORX (R) bolts too, then replace w/ bolts of you're prefrance.
