This'll be the reason for the nasty noises on Sunday!

Arrhhh, after finaly getting the hub off as a result of the previous wrench wielder using the wrong bolts washer etc. the stub axle is wrecked and to finish off an evening 2 bolts sheared getting the stub axle off.:frusty:

Anyone with pearls of wisdom to impart regarding getting the rest of the bolts out?

or sharp chisle and tap round, or a studd extractor, mole grips, the options are endless ,

weld a nut onto the broken stud. the heat of the welding will allow you to unscrew using the welded nut

Adjust or replace?? what do you think???
