Default Anyone break a tighting bolt for the chain.-z-400

For some reason this weekend i was in Indiana ,at badlands and at theend of the day i noticed that my chain was loose. I go in the back and look to see that one of my chain tighting bolts was barly hanging there, it fell of when i tried to touch it. So i have one tighting bolt left and that is for the right side. I heard i have to take my axel out to fix it.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

You can leave the axle in if there is still some of the stud sticking from the carrier. Don't try to drill it out. There are 2 ways to fix this. the easiest way for me is to weld a bolt of the same diameter to the stud then crank it out while still hot. The other way is to take it to a machinist and pay them to fix it. I have seen many people try to drill these out therselves and drill off-center and make junk out of a carrier. I would try a Tool and Die shop. Their usually pretty reasonable but you would have to take them the carrier.
