i ordered a transfer case drop kit with the rest of my kit from zone lifts. The trouble iam having is it came with 4 spacers and 4 bolts , but only 2 of my bolts come out and the other are in the frame and dont move. How do i get those 2 bolts out and how do i get the new bolts in ? they didnt send nuts so i was thinking that they would back out ,but i tryed that and they wont turn. Its almost like those are studs instead of bolts...

 

They are studs, u need a stud remover, or clamp a pair of vice grips on em, or use the double nut method. Id suggest heating them up too, to loosen them up.

 

They are studs. I had one hell of a time getting them out. Actually ended up drilling them out and re-tapping them to accept the new bolts. You might have some luck with penetrating oil and heat and a vice-grip...

 

Yea I did the same for mine, I torched them out and tap and redrilled. Other way to get them out is to tack weld the nut to the stud then just back them out

 

so they will unscrew !i can weld a nut on there and try that ,i wish there was a way to get some PB on them first, ill try it and see what happens, thanks..

 

x3!
