  • Snapped a Lug Bolt

    Lug nut was crossthreaded and on way too tight. Snapped the bolt trying to get it off.

    Rotor is off...What's the best way to get that bolt out of there?

    hammer the broken one out, take a spare lug nut and a couple washer and use that to pul the new bolt on with either a impact gun or u can get away with a breaker bar/rachet(both are 1/2" drive) and a pipe
