I bent the axle on my kfx400 and had the shop replace it cause it was under warranty well i hadnt adjusted the chain since this was done. Well when i started to adjust it i noticed that the bottom bolt on the swingarm next to the brake caliper looked a little rounded off but not bad. well when i tried to losen it the socket BROKE and rounded it off bad.i have an 03 by the way,with the most horrible chain adustment ever. What would be the best way of going about getting the bolt out. I know im gonna order another bolt but what are some good ideas on gettin this one out? Any suggestions will surely be appriciated, thanks.

 

This is what I use. You can get them at Advance Auto. These things are a godsend. As long as you've got something vaguely resembling a bolt head it should get them out. When you replace the bolts use a little bit of anti-sieze on them, it make sfor much easier removal.

 

take a dremel tool with a cut off wheel and grind flats on 2 sides to fit a wrench. so you can grab on to it.

 

i work at a lube center and when we get a stipped out drain plug we weld a bolt to it they come right out works sweat
