HELP!!!!! I am restoring my 1971 914 and I have been working on the rear trailing arms... I was able to get 3 of the 6attachment bolts out without breaking them, but there were three more that broke off...So my question is what is the best way to get these broken bolts out???... I am really trying to get this back to a rolling chasis before the snow flies....so ANY one who has done this please pontificate on the manner I can get these broken bolts out????
Any help would be greatly appreciated 914 Rhatt (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

The ship quickly and are more likely to have what you need than run of the mill hardware stores. I get delivery in Oregon by regular ups in 3-4 days. They also have metric taps and bolts. Their website is use-enco.com Here is a link to cobalt bits: http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INPDFF?PMPAGE=...;PARTPG=INLMK32 |
