broken ypipe/header stud
So i thought I had an exhaust leak where the ypipe meets the rear header. Well 2 of the 3 bolts were loose, and while trying to tighten the other, I snapped it. I think I should just replace the other bolts/studs as well. I imagine I'll probably have to take off the header, but im not sure. What is the best way to go about this? What sort of extraction tools are there and where could I purchase it?
You just probably have to drill a hole through the bolt and use a drill with a bolt extractor. It's sort of like a drill bit. You put the drill in reverse and it extracts it, home depot has it.
u'll probably have to take out the header and get the bolts out of the stud. if ur stud is broken, you can try to wrap it. maybe an exhaust shop and fix that problem for u as well.
or just go buy a new header/y-pipe from cattman
