Stripped Nut..

[c_note]

hell, while your at it, remove the door thats in the way, centerpunch the head of the screw and drill the head off. start with a 1/8" drill bit and move up to about a 1/4" bit. the head will pop off when you start drilling into the shank of the screw. then you will just have to get a set of vicegrips and remove the shank of the screw from the insert when the fender is off.

And then throw a bundle of dynamite into the cab and send whatever is left to the scrapper. I just got $10 per 100# a couple weeks ago.

I understand that six point sockets are less likely to round off the head of the bolts, but less likely for them to strip?


How does that work?
