stevenjenkins.klb. Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Rite i was wondering if anyone knows of anyways to get a snapped bolt out of my frame. btw it is snapped rite in you cant take it out with an ajustable. i was thinking about putting a small drill (maybe 3mm) through it and then i may be able to get it out from there. would this work? any help would be appreciated.

Ash-Kennard Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 drilling the bolt wont work, it will just dig in deeper, ram a screw driver in first and hit the handle with a hammer creating a groove, then use the screwdriver to twist it out.if not, then drill the hole to 6mm, tap the hole, then insert a helicoil to get it back to its original size, and leaving the mounts stronger as a steel insert pwns alu thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2sixstreet Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Drill a hole in it and use an Easy Out. Its a left hand thread tool so when you screw it in, the snapped bolt naturally wants to turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
