Pretty much stripped them so I bought the grabit extractors from CT, sprayed some liquid wrench. The extractor gripped but then the grip broke off cause it just wouldnt budge lol. Now theres a hole in the screws.. Filled them up with jbweld to try again but looking for other suggestions. Tried to vise-grip them off but no luck either, very little room. Advertisement
