Most caliper bolts are torqued in tightly (or at least should be). I actually had a wheel nut take the force of a 13 stone man standing on a 4′ breaker and not move, when this method was used the nut started and screwed off by hand. There is no need to hammer away and remove more broken bolt material than is necessary. Those Irwin bolt extractors in your pic look nice and compact. Heat to a dull red with Oxy/Acetylene and quench immediately with cold water. The existing bolt may be hardened also which could make it almost impossible to drill for a screw type extractor. Favorite method, used on Fordson tractor wheel nuts and similar. Also be careful of finishes around the work area, a welder, even a mig can do damage. For the really stubborn stuff a mig welder is a godsend but you have to understand when you go down this rout the bolt, stud or whatever will be unusable.

Sometimes an impact driver works wonders on smaller diameter fasteners, it doesn’t apply too much torque preventing breakage but hits it repeatedly which can break the corrosion’s grip. Be conscious of the diameter of the threaded parts a 6mm m/s bolt will not survive the attention of a 3/4″ socket and 3′ breaker bar. If I’m planning to work at the thing on say Saturday I will do this each evening from Wednesday. A Dremel & a couple of good grinding burrs and plenty of paitence & bolt & extractor can be removed,If you grind out the extractor 1st then drill the bolt progressively bigger till the bolt is just a shell then collapse the shell with a small punch,Clean up the threads with the proper size tap 8mm x 1.25 pitch should be the size. If you can heat the item normally by running the engine or taking it for a run do so and as soon as your back spray liberally with release oil of your choice and let it cool completely, overnight if possible. If the caliper is undamaged then a new bolt should work fine. also check the caliper mounting bracket for damage. if you want to be on the safe side you can change it.

Cheap sockets or wrenches make rounded corners almost certain. if you can get the old bolt out and the hole is not damaged, oblong or cracked it should be ok. Firstly make sure your tools are a good, tight fit on the fastener. Does anyone have any ideas or other methods I can use to remove the bolt extractor and the broken fitting with out further damper to the caliper. I have started to drill out the extractor but I can tell this is going to take a long time. original sound - Candyshopcustoms.I’ve spent a lifetime fixing, restoring and repairing old cars, bikes and tractors and corroded in bolts and studs are a constant pain. Of course the extractor is in too far to reach with needle nose pliers. This was the 2nd removal attempt btw Tickety Boo!!! #brokenbolt #brokenboltremoval #brokenboltextraction #lsproblems". If that's the case, weld a washer to the stud, then weld a nut to the washer and remove the stud! The washer gets you closer to the broken bolt for a better chance of the weld taking.

Clean the area, sometimes you can weld a nut directly to the stud, sometimes the stud is broken off to deep.
