Icon4 Remove stripped power steering nut / bolt ??


Tried using a bolt extractor but the torque is just too tight. Heat didn't work. Cut the nut with a dremel but it still won't budge

Thinking outside the box... I like your style kid. Next time, focus on NOT stripping the nut by using the correct tool and the correct technique... it will save you a ton of heartache.
