I wanted to give a final update on what I did for other peoples future help. Long story short welding to the bolt is the best way to remove them. I took it to my local welder and he said he had a "tool" for this. He welded a rod to it instead of a bolt and said he had a tool that grabbed the rod...
Also I have no idea how you would weld to the top of that stripped allen head, sure you could grind it flat and it wont weld to the aluminum but how does that give it strength if your welding at an angle with a tig welder and a weak ass stainless rod
I payed a friend at his machine shop to do this. Its pretty perfect. The hole is large but I think an oversized helicoil will solve the problem.
As far as the others I am going to heat them up and use an extractor for one and a allen tool for the other.
Thanks so much guys! This information is so helpful. I think your right about the drill press. I am going to get a good dremel bit that can remove the rest of the bolt and center the hole. The bit I have isnt doing so well against stainless.
I have another question. The tip of the stainless...
What is that? I dont think the bottom hole is damaged by the drill bit but the bolt is still stuck in there, whats left of it. The hole is off by a mm because with out a drill press the bit wanders.
Here is the second one, this is what the first one looked like till I drilled down the center...
I will look up group k and try to message some of those people you mentioned. I tried with the heat and an extractor and it didnt budge so I give up. I might have to take it to a local machine shop but it would cost so much I could only afford to fix the one.
Theres nothing to weld to and...
I did try that. Its not as easy as it looks. I ended up breaking the extractor and I luckily got it out with a carbide bit. The allen head on top is gone on the others and there is nothing strong enough to grab onto with vice grips. You would have to have a nice extractor then use heat. And your...
Hey, I am looking for someone with a machine shop who has experience getting the jets out of a Factory head pipe. I drilled the top one out and its not quite perfect. I want to send it in to someone who knows what there doing before I make the hole larger. If affordable I would also pay to have...
Fair enough. Thanks for the info. I read some info wrong and thought the 550 flywheel would work. But what do you think of the condition of it?
And ya the pipe wrench marks turn me off of this impeller but I could definitely try to clean it up. My question is do you think its worth installing?
I have an 86 js 300 with a thumb throttle and I know for a fact when I go to ride it next weekend it is just going to kill my thumb. So no rush I can use whats there for now but I definetly want one. I assume I can use the existing cable. I found aftermarket new for 35 plus 10 for the adapter...
Pretty cool story I was at a junkyard for cars and they had a section for cars they sell complete running usually. It was next to the line to check out and as I was leaving I saw two 550s on a trailer. Kinda beat up, I went to look at them and saw that one was covered in aftermarket parts...
