i took my car to the shop to get my suspension done and this genius overtorqued my strut bolt and broke in half. The bolt broke off, leaving half of it stuck and i was wondering how i can take it out. Also, this genius was installing my headers and broke off the bolt on the very left side (the first bolt you see on the left side when you're looking at the headers). i was wondering what is the best way to take out and replace the bolts?

 

Man, that guy is one good mechanic. YOu should refer all your friends to him. Also, it's header not plural headers.

Which header is it?

 

strut bolt? maybe I missed something but I dont know what you mean by strut bolt. the bolt that holds the strut on the LCA?

as for the header stud, search around in the Forced Induction forum, breaking those studs is common in that forum.

pics would definitely help in this situation.
