I broke 3 of the t case crossmember bolts. How do I get the rest of the bolt out? The bolt in the picture is the only one that didn't break. I also don't know how to get that one out. Please help.

The way we did it, was to weld a nut on the broken one and take it out but I'm sure there's other ways if you don't have a welder

It's either what he said or cut holes to access the top of those. I broke 3 of them. I removed my seats and pulled the carpet back. I then drilled 2" holes above the broken bolts. I drilled the bolts out then dropped new ones in from the top. Other people have cut windows in the side of the frame rail to get to them.

To remove the studs like the one you posted look up the "double nut trick." Basically you tighten two nuts together and use the top one to back the stud out.

To get the other 3 out the best way would be to weld nuts back onto the broken bolts and stud. The heat from welding on the bolts usually helps break them free.
