Quick question guys. I kinda stripped the top of a bolt, the bolt that connects the hub to the rotors on a 1993 honda accord, if that helps any. But i remember seeing a tool once that i could use to take the bolt out. Its only the top of the bolt, not the thread itself. You can stil place a socket on it, but if pressure is applied it will slip. The tool in particular i was looking for looked like an emergency lug nut remover.



Kinda like that. But i need a 14 or 17 (can't remember). I'm wondering where i can buy this? I tried local tool/auto stores, but they keep saying i have to tap the hole and maybe rethread it.

Thanks guys.

 

easy-out? try sears

 

irwin makes a set, and autozone sells them. thats where i got my set.

I've used the sears easy-outs and they work great. You can buy individual sizes or a kit. They look just like the one pictured above, only black.

 

in a super emergency use a big hammer to bang on a 12 point socket then use a impact to remove the nut bolt stud fastener etc. the picture posted above those things work great when they dont break. my impact used to split them in 2 or 3 pieces all the time

 

bolt out

google it

You not suppose to use them with impacts....

 

Could be the reason they broke all the time but my local tool place replaced them for no charge every time one broke

 

vice grips on there real tight if you can get in there.
