Broken front skid bolt

[ryanee182]

I started removing my front skid so I could change the diff fluid, and because the bolts were quite rusty I soaked them in PB Blaster first. The rear 2 and front driver-side bolts backed out fine with a little elbow grease, but then I did the same for the front passenger-side bolt and it snapped! What's left of the bolt is broken off flush with the surface.

I don't want to screw it up any more that it already is, so I thought I'd ask for some help before attempting to remove it. Any recommendations?

Center punch
drill
HIGH heat ,Oxy acetelyn tourch
"easy out" ,bolt extractor
Do not get easy out hot ,they don't like it

If all you have is the drill
Just slowly drill the hole bigger until a 3/8" bolt
will easy pass through
Remember to C-clamp a pcs. of wood and a pcs. of steel
so you have crossmember-wood-steel
This will allow you to fully drill out the hole
but stop before you damage anything

Left hand twist drill-they are made for this.
Screw Extractor
These people also are good to deal with,have bought from them several times.
