Rear Skid Plate Bolts

Rear Skid Plate Bolts
In order to remove the rear skid plate from my 02 Raptor, I had to grind off the heads of the rear bolts. Since then I have hit them with every penetrating fluid known to man, and tried to unscrew them with vice grips. Since I am posting this, you may have realized they are still on the quad. Any Ideas on how to get them out????

You could try a bit of heat and an ez-out kit.
Or you can use a carbide drill bit and go up in sizes a bit at a time until it pops free....You will most likely want to run a thread chaser through the hole when your done.

and if there is enough meat left,,,,grind (dremel tool) a slot in the shaft,,,,,heat it really good with a torch,,,and unscrew it with a large standard screwdriver.
heat is the key (to melt any glue on the bolt)
