Re: Anyone good with broken bolt removal?

Your pretty much fuk'd, that's why you have to hit everything with penetrating oil and hit it a few times and if that doesen't work hit it with a torch for a few minutes. I would say use a small drill bit and try to cut the bolt out without hitting the threads, worst case senario you have to put a nut on the end of the bolt, but it sucks to be your right now. Are you keeping the control arm? You could sawsall the bolt by the bushging and get the arm off or cut the arm and get it off and then work the stub out.
I'm gonna go with the sarah palin spread eagle and say drill it out and use a helicoil or nut.
