Soon I will have replaced everything on the car. At least then I won't have to worry about anything.

Yeah... You've got a long way to go buddy.

Music?

Bolts snapping off into the hub seem to be a common theme with adapters. Is it the bolt material not being strong enough?

True, I'm not sure about the material but, I should have checked'em earlier.

Its funny how my house is too far though.

Foo, I'm saying that cause you're usually in school but if you want to help, hit me up please.

If anyone has anymore ideas hit me up.

E, PM Shant (Myster-E). He'll probably have a suggestion!

You can try these

they dont always work but its worth a shot. imo

yea you can get them at a vato zone but better off at a home depot since there are a few 24hr ones

^Ironic.

Use pliers and a Dremel.

Far from irony, just calculated sarcasm ;)

Edwin, get a bolt extractor kit from Home Depot...or lowes or wherever, thats how I got a completely stripped lug bolt our a few months ago...took a shit ton of work but eventually got it out, they are probably going to be ur best bet...just drill into the bolt then use the bolt extractor with a breaker bar...done

Thanks James, I will do that since it seems to be the #1 solution.

Hommie or Lowes has reverse drill bit with a built in screw. As it drills in it creates a thread and you use a wrench after to undue it in reverse.

Something like this.

Mike, did you try to hook up with Art? He said his company was hiring.

LOL that whole thing was a major cocktease.

Mikes being looked after.

I just wanna hear back already!

Its funny how my house is too far though.

I definitely wasn't at a meet last night...I was in bed by 10:30.

Kind-of seems like it at this rate, once I fix one thing, another breaks. Soon I will have replaced everything on the car. At least then I won't have to worry about anything.

Gave me a good laugh!

I'm dealing with 2 broken bolts in a hub. Anyone know what tool I'm supposef to use to get those bishes out?

I know that feel. Vice grips on either side of the hub if you can, or drill it out.

Mike, as quoted from another thread. But it might be too far.

BMW of Ontario needs a good parts dept. guy if anyone is looking for a decent job.

[mkcman17]

I'd like to, but ontario is just too far for me.
