Re: Intro from an old Assembly Plant guy
I was working on my other truck today... the Chevy S 10 and i thought i had it made... three of the four mounting bolts wewre the nuts with the attached washer on them ... the fourth connector has the seat belts attached and had the torx head bolts... I finally got the right decent torx socket and they promptly stripped out... what we did was to take an 11/16 bolt and hold it upside down and sketch out the head of the bolt, cut it out with the makita 3 1/5 inch grinder and jam a socket on it then ratchet it out that way..then off to lowes to find the correct replacement bolt and washers
turned an hour job into a three and half hour adventure..
