04chase Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 go buy a bolt that is the same size and throw a nut or two on it and turn it off or weld an old 1/2 socket to the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkblade Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm having a problem getting the Bering retainer for the steering stem out I made a tool with a 30mm bolt and heated it with a torch the hit it with an impact driver but it wouldn't budge I need help ASAP thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nieskes Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Is it rusted? Are you turning it the correct way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I made a tool with a 30mm bolt and heated it with a torch the hit it with an impact driver but it wouldn't budge Impact driver? The kind you smack with a hammer? That's not gonna do it. Or do you mean an air impact gun? That should do it, unless you bought it at Harbor Freight. I always just use a 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkblade Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I mean air impact gun one made by craftsmen the other is air stream set at 120 psi and I used an acetylene torch and I let it soak in wd40 pb blaster but it's still stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
