get an easy out extractor bit or kit that should get it out

im gonna try the vice grip thing first then let y'all know if it worked,

If you have a dremel you can cut across the head so that you can turn it with a flathead screwdriver. And what yamahauler said will work as well easy out kits are handy to have in your tool box.

Good advice up there^^^. IF all else fails, grind the head off, get it apart, and use vise grips on what's left. But, that's a LAST ditch effort. You may even be able to take a hammer and small chisle, and get it too turn.

Hopefully what beast mode says works. cause that sounds the easiest. Thanks guys!

You can also use a hacksaw to cut a slot for a screw driver in it as well.

Yep, I'd cut a flathead screwdriver slot in it with a dremel, should come right out like that. Doesn't take a lot of torque to get those screws out.

Im gona try it this afternoon!

left handed drill bits are great for any kind of screws and allen head bolts, I've had to use many times in the past.

I personally have done it for years with a good sharp chisle and hammer. But easy outs and left handed bits do come in handy when all else fails.

U gotta replace that bolt anyway. Grind the head off carefully and get it apart like pat said. U gonna spend time tryin to get it apart nice so u can throw it away anyway.

+1 on the Easy-Out. I have used them with great success. But if you're feelin cheap, the hacksaw/dremel way will work as well.

wait, the OP said he was gonna try it the afternoon of 7-22-13... So did it work for ya, CodeBlue?
