Trying to extract a bolt with stripped head from alternator chain

>>994244
the head looks fat enough for vise grips to dig into

six inch pipe wrench
or weld a nut onto it

next time you're using an impact screwdriver make sure you use a bit that fuckin fits and isn't all chewed up and twisted from a previous job.

and while i'm being mad af, don't use ez-outs on seized fasteners for fuck's sake. they're for threads that turn freely but can't be gripped, like if you sheared a bolt through fatigue, or reamed out a grub screw.

No welding equipment. I did use correct bit but the head was already little damaged so that was the result. I did manage to get the bolt out, bought vise grips and grabbed the extractor with that.

Could try JB welding something on the end, or get out the dremel with cut disks and mill a X into it

>cut disks and mill a X into it

single line to use a flat head to simple?

You don't have skill. Ask machine shop for help.

This never works, you end up trying to turn the head and it splits off leaving you fucked even harder.

>>994244
You drill off the head.

Tap holder.
Thats what you use with screw extractors.

Kek, this is why i have a few different left hand taps and a few left hand threaded bolts

As long as the bolt is at least flush it'll come right out

why do you people always want to try and compromise the structural integrity of the middle of the head, you know, where the shaft is?
IF its your ONLY option then you grind flats on the OUTSIDE of the head and put a spanner on it. but soak it a few times in penetrating spray first.
also tightening it up a little first can help to crack the bonds on the threads and loosen it up.
