Any of you guys know of a source for decent quality extractors? Thanks, -BA
share a picture of where the bolt is broken. don't buy cheap extractors. should you do, and it breaks, your 10x deeper in a hole you were in before and then you will need carbide drill bits which are hella expensive and shatter easily... very frustrating.

is a real nice kit and can save your bacon if you have the room and will make extracting it and or thread repair much nicer and easier..
