Lastly is taking an old axle nut and welding it onto the head of the bolt. This allows you to use a large 6 point socket and impact gun to spin it right off. If the trick below didn’t work this would have been our next step.

With the pain of these from three years ago still fresh in my mind I scoured the internet and thought to myself… What is another way than these to pop these things off. I stumbled upon a YouTube video showing a simple twist lock socket being hammered on and spun right off. Now I had tried this before with a Harbor Frieght damaged bolt remover kit and had absolutely no luck. But the design of these is very different and couldn’t get a good bite on the bolt head leaving it where it sat.

After looking through Amazon for awhile I found a Twist lock set with a decent overall review and hope that it could take care of business. I have used these at work when removing locking lugnuts and they seem to come through every time. So let us see how these turn out… ( <-that part was a joke, get it?)
