Did it break on removal or on installation? And does it spin and not move or did it just break off flush?

We were trying to take the head off, the head of the bolt is still there but it is rounded off. We tried gettin a 13mm on there but no dice. Does anyone have a link to the Snap on Bolt extractor.

This is what you need. I have a set, they are the ****, hammer them on, then use a big impact to remove.

my guess is you will have to drill it out.

drill a hole through the center of the bolt until you are about to the bottom of the head. start with an eighth inch bit and work your way up to about 3\8 inch. then drive an old socket over the bolt and twist slowly. this will shear the head off. slide the head off the block. the rest that is left will usually screw out with your fingers.
also put shop towels around the head of the bolt while drilling to catch the metal shavings.

those met-wrench sets that sears sells have always worked good for me.. they grab the nut on the flat part.. I think a set is like $30.. but it has been a while since I bought them..
