Im installing my 4.5" lift kit and when I went to remove the bolt for the axle side of the trac-bar...it snapped off where the threads start which is about halfway down the bolt itself...how the heck am i gonna get in there to get the thing out? i dont know if theres enough room for an easy out in there...any suggestions?

 

Easy-out's come in all sizes.

Or just man up, cut it off and get an over the axle tracbar mount.

 

so the bolt is still threaded in the nut?

 

Why dont you just say a prayer about it

 

 

half of it, is the nut on the backside welded in?

 

LMFAO

 

:[ im 17 and broke as a joke LOL spent all my money on the lift and now i need brake line and some other stuff...the xj is my only drivable car too

 

Story of my life HAHA

 

the nut on the back side is a handle nut...what about power tools try to fit a sawzall in there and hack it off

 

that nut is not welded in. it is just a nut with a tab on it to keep it from spinning, just do what i would do. find a big *** hammer and a punch (metal preferably) Take a deep Breath YELL! and then beat it the hell out!

then after u calm down and the nut is out get a new nut and bolt (est. cost 5$ max). Trust me a Im a professional mechanic USAF F-15 Crew Chief.

 

Yeah thats not a bad idea ^^

Believe it or not, yelling makes a huge difference

 

drill it out and put a new one. may take a while but its the only thing i can figure with out demolishing stuff

 

lmao it sucksss

 

oh wow really?! so i can just knock it out, no threads on the mount?
