What would you do....
If you were removing the last bolt off your pinion housing to split it from the carrier and the top-half of the bolt snapped off. I can't drill into it....Guess I need to take it to a shop? Any other recomendations?

My friend and I were fixing a latch on my HT. All 3 bolts stripped, squaring them for use with a socket = more stripped, BFscrewdriver = another one stripped, drilling them out = broken bit, extractor set=broke off extractor inside.
Carbide bit= got 1 out, made enough room to cross thread another bolt in, and make a small hole in the HT.
I feel you.
total time close to 10 hours

can you not see my pathedic drill hole....none of my bits would drill though the bolt material (I assume Grade 8 or 10)
if i had a welder I'd try that.
