Ok I broke a bolt on my tunnel brace when trying to install my new torque arm. Whats the best way to remove it? I can't get it with pliers and theres only like 1 cm sticking out of the hole.

stud puller, or drill it out, start with a tiny bit and keep moving to a bigger bit until it basically falls out.<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/483076\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/483076</a> <br />TSP rumbler, straight pipe, corvette servo. <br />Soon - 3.42+lsd,headers, cai, -

Best ways I've used in removing broken bolts is to:
Drive a socket on over the problem and then ratchet it out. This also works with an adjustable crescent wrench too.
or
Use Sears bolt-out. They basically ratchet themselves onto a stud or even rounded bolts and as you bring the stud out, the bolt-out head ratchets itself up the stud even more. Really nifty tool to have.-Mark (aim: Eredasx)-<br />Black 01 Bird. 3\" exhaust. Eibach pros. Tokico shocks. Whisper lid. SLP CAI. LS1 DS. SLP fan switch. LSD. BMR PHR, LCAs and STB.
