So I decided to install the new Rough Country winch bumper. The unibody tie in brackets call for removing the 2 gear box bolts. So, hit them with some PB blast and tried to take them off. Got the one nearest to the firewall off but the one closet to to the front bumper, snapped off inside the gear box. Any suggestions on how to get it out. The bumper is on now but I dont want to drive it around with only 1 gear box bolt in there.

Are there any suggestions on what I should do. Should I try to drill it out? Or just get a new gear box. The less headaches the better, lol

 

You shouldn't need a new gearbox, but if you go that route go with the Durango upgrade.

 

I was thinking about the durango upgrade but this gearbox only has 108k on it, so its not that bad. I went to Ace Hardware and got a few things, going to tackle it later tonight. Hopefully I can drill out the bolt. Stupid gearbox bolts.

 

Yeah, I got really lucky with mine.

But on the other side one bolt was too long and started boring a hole into my alt housing.

Fun fun.
