Drill the head of the bolt off. The head of the bolt holds all the tension once it is off the head will come off and you should be able to unscrew the shank of the bolt by hand.</TD></TR></TABLE>

ya i was thinking of using an air chizel, someone said it wouldn't be able to eat through?
drilling is the last thing i wanna do..

I've seen that work.

Or you can have someone come buy and MIG a nut onto there, and turn it off...

i used a cracked 6 pt to take my head bolts out. needless to say 2 stayed there for a week. yea that night i was like sears has bolt removers, i can just buy a set and mi golden. well. they go inside a larger socket. the bolt remover itself didnt fit in the recess so i knew that wouldnt work. but... i did still have a cracked socket and a brand new set of bolt removers. i had my brother tig the socket to the remover. he turned both down first. ill take pix if u want, show u the close to roll of quaters weld.

ive been trying to mig nuts to the bolts but they keep breaking off. there isnt enough room to weld on the sides of the nut, only the center. using fluxcore..
