Stripped Bolt HELP ASAP

Postby TTipswprd » Sat Jan 02, 2010 3:54 pm

I am trying to take my stock turbo off to check things out because i believe its going out. The last nut i have to get off is on the manifold. This nut wouldnt come off and is now stripped. it is on the top the manifold towards the front side of the truck. There is very little room to get anything other than a wrench on this nut. How can i get this sucker off being stripped?

If you have a welder you could weld the nut to the stud and take the stud and nut off all at once.Or use a die grinder and cut the nut off then get the stud out after you take the turbo off.

Might try a 6 sided boxed end wrench get a cheap one and then you could tack it to the nut if you had to

or just try a metric size heat always helps too try just getting the manifold way hot by ruunning the truck

if you use heat take an old candle and when you heat it up touch the candle on the bolt so the wax will seep in between the nut and bolt. it helps ALOT. trust me.
