Are you talking about the driveshaft halfshaft mount? Are the threads or head stripped?

If the head is rounded off, you can buy little bolt-out sockets/kits that attach to your ratchet. The sockets are made to bite into the rounded metal. Sears, Autozone, napa, etc will have them

Every machanic should have a set of those. You never know when the bolt is going to go round.
