one of the upper heim joints broke of as I was trying to adjust it, it was seized and i was trying to turn it alil a time and my patience was low and i turned it as hard as i could and the joint came off right where the a arms starts. now mos t of the joint tread is in teh a arm and i cant get it out. i tried putting abead of weld on top and then welding a nut and i tried drilling in the middle and using one of those extractor taps. I havent been able to fix it, any help will be appreciated.

If you drill all the way through the center and keep increacing the drill size . Soon there won't be much of the heim bolt left and you may be able to get it out with a punch then.
