Stripping some bolts - sears bolt out kit won't fit in the area help!
I got some bolts holding the manifold stripping.
you cannot put a socket on either of them because the runned of the manifold are in the way, so I cannot even put a bolt out tool on there!
Any ideas?

He could just weld another nut on the end and take the nut and bolt out in one shot?
that's what i would do, or you could just put two more nuts on there and tighten and put 12mm open end wrench on the nut closet to the stripped nut and take the whole stud out like that with out welding

That would work great
or if you cant do it that way and all else fails....
Take a punch and hammer and beat it until the stud breaks off. Take the manifold off and replace the stud w/ a new one and put on a new nut
goodluck

Re: (rudebwoy)
in those situations I always weld a good nut on top of the stripped nut and then use the combination wrench to turn the new nut...It works great...when you cant get the srew outs and stuff in there.

i guess i am the only one that has done this.... My nuts for 12mm so i took a 11mm open end wrench and hammered it on the nut its pretty easy then tap the wrench a few times and then pull the wrench like you are taking the nut off should be good to go, everytime i take my turbomani off aslteast 1 nut decides it wants to be taken off with a 11mm then the regular 12mm hope that helps, saves me alot of time then the hammer and chisel i did it this way the first time a fucked up my stud....

no he will roundhouse kick the manifold off without even ******* up the studs in the head.
i had the same problem before, i just did like the other guys said, tack weld a good nut on the stripped nut and then you will be able to take it off.

lube, heat, vice grips... If thta doesnt work id cut it off, if i couldnt ive drilled them down and cracked them apart, or double nutted the stud out.
