Sears has a nice set for cheap.

Thanks I'll look into that.

A very small pipe wrench and a piece of pipe just big enough to fit on the handle.

I'm serious.

You can drill it out

I has a drill

iLikeEatPoo 08-03-09 01:18 PM

I would drill but it's in a very annoying hard place to access. Cat to header. and I only have stock jacks. I would have used vice grips and hammer but there is simply no clearance.. someone have one of those giant 30lb floor jacks? hard drifting pretty much welded the bolts tight. I also heard you can weld a bolt on top of it but I have no welder either.

I got a buddy that will weld a bolt on there for a burrito. Let me know if you want his number

if you have a dremel with a cut off wheel, try slotting it for a flathead or philps as last resort.

ReZ311 08-03-09 06:58 PM

easy out.

iLikeEatPoo 08-03-09 08:58 PM

Thanks for all the advice. I think I'm going to take it to the autoshop class at Bonita Vista High and use the lift so I can get clearance to hit it out with a vice grip and hammer. if it doesn't work I'll hit you up dane about the welding.

danegerous 08-04-09 02:59 PM

you can come use the lift on base too dude

iLikeEatPoo 08-04-09 04:05 PM

Yeah. But Bonita Vista High is less than a mile away from my home.
