Bansh-eman Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 did you just break the studs or did the studs rip the cases threads out? if the studs just broke off inside you can remove them, it wont be ez but it can be done and you wouldnt have to worry with the helicoil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansh-eman Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 go buy some PB blaster and one of those broken bolt remover kits. spary the PB and let it soak for a few hours. then you should be able to remove the busted studs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Buy a new set of cases... They're never right after you pop them bottom studs. For the cost to fix 'em right, you could have used cases in good shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I you have access to torches heat the aluminum around the stud untill its good and hot. Oh yea a 5 dollar propane torch wont work, if it does you'll be there for ever. drill them and have your easy outs ready. good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yes...and the other side of that coin is warpage on the cases. PA Matt...did you do anything special afterwards to check for flatness, or did you get..."lucky"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaNsHeeJuNkEy Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) had the same thing happen with my cases and i even used heat before i started doing it. i ended up drilling them out and putting heali coils in my 4 outter ones they will hold just when you put the new studs in don't suck them down tight because u cna pull the coil out just finger tight is enough and the nut up top will do all the tightning u need. o and pb blast waste of time unless it is nut and bolt i tried it didn't do shit. and i let it sit over night soaked in it.

highroller355 Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 i tried heating them up but didnt want them to get to hot due to is aluminum, used pb and let sit the only reason i was taking them out was the powder coater said he needed them out to powder coat , but i was just told i shouldnt have to have them taken out to get them powder coated. so i guess ill find another powder coater. after i buy a another set of cases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Mine were PC'd with studs in. Hell...the Powder guy even PC'd the outers of my cases, clutch and flywheel side. Get the razor out....LOL. But PC'd cases are tight...finish it up with a stainless kit homie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe I just got luckey, but its the only way I could get them out, and trust me I tried everything I could think of. I even tried military grade pt oil. I found a little heat goes a long way.
