C.A.R. Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 A quick video I made explaining how I remove broken, frozen, corroded & seized bolts. Quote
dat2kman Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well done, very concise and good explanation. Quote
George Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Good work Locky. Looks like a very useful skill to have. Thanks for the effort. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted February 3, 2014 Administrators Posted February 3, 2014 Awesome mate, made it a sticky also. You're right on Z-cars they sheer off cleanly on the fenders bastard things! Quote
DreamZproject Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Hey, i think I know that guy from the video... I've had at least 3 of my fender bolts sheer off flush, with the lack of a TIG, Dad some how managed to drill them out by very carefully using the perfect sized drill bit drill dead center... I'm sure that wouldn't work 100% of the time though! Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted February 4, 2014 Administrators Posted February 4, 2014 I don't suppose you have a method for removing a rusted in screw on a plastic indicator lens? For example I have 1 of these indicator lens' that has a snapped off screw in it. It's a shame because it would probably polish up nicely and be re-usable but I can't think of a way of extracting the rusted screw without destroying it. Quote
benny Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Good luck Gav.... i think the only way you could do it would be to drill it out and tap the hole slightly bigger... just be careful you dont drill through the front of the lense Quote
