Hi. I’m in the process of re newing the cross member bolts as they have started to rust, I thought this would be a simple task but 4 seem to have snapped in the process. What would be the best way to get these out as the nuts are welded to the back and I can’t get to them and struggling to drill them out. Thanks.

theres a piece of angle bolted to the cross member with the captive nuts welded on ,drilling and retapping or helicoil is your best option

Hi did you use an impact impact gun or drill to remove them?

I recently did mine over crimbo, if I had used an drill or impact gun they would of snapped... Used a whole tin of oil doing them screws have you tried drilling them out, use a small drill first and work your way bigger each time
