Its not my week. I had to tow my buddy about THREE miles to my house after a stick riped the gas hose out of the gas tank and he went empty. Bad thing is that it happend in a DEEP mud hole.

At the hose when we were cleaning the machines, I noticed the rear bolt on the right rear lower sway arm was loose. I took off the wheel and the bolt came right out. It was snaped off inside the hub. I tried and easy out but that did not work.

Does anyone have any suggestions????

Worst case I need to get a new rear hub. Any ideas on how much that is going to cost me???

I had a bolt break on the lower left side of mine a few months ago. I bought the easy-out set from Sears. It is a reverse-drive drill bit with the easyout on it. Worked great! Maybe a bit more expensive than the bargain-bin Made in China stuff, but I wanted to make sure I got it out the first time without boogering up the hole.

It's one of two things. First, if you keep riding with TEAMBOWEN your gonna have mechanical probs. Second, color counts...
