Once the head is off the bolt the shaft will undo easily.


using a 10mm socket instead of the correct head bolt socket

they all came out fine exept this one!

You'll need to check the head for flatness after, as you'll not be following the pattern and could distrot the head slightly, but there's no real way round that.

i think ill try drilling the head off the bolt, taking the head off, the removing the bolt out of the block with some stilsons.

thanks for all ur help guys:thumbs:

cut head off bolt
get the head off
it may be free cos the head isnt pressing on it anymore

if its still stuck weld a bar onto it then a second smaller onto the otherside of bolt and then onto the first bar

That doesnt sound good :o
Uhm I'd try welding a nut onto the bolt head..make sure its really well wleded on there though.

any advice on removing a head bolt that has had the head churned off it?

tried hammering loads of sockets over it........didnt work (wont grip)
tried gripping it with stilsons.........................didnt work (not enough room)

might drill the head off THE BOLT so that the head can be taken off, and remove the other half of the bolt with stilsons?

any advice?

and it had to be the LAST FUCKIN ONE:mad::mad:
