Sears Bolt-Out Works
You may have seen the TV ads with Bob Veila about the Sears Craftsmen "Bolt Out" its a socket with hardened biting teeth inside to remove rounded off nuts. I bought a set for $19.99 yesterday and used it to get the rounded off nuts off of the intake and outlet of my cat. converter. It really works well. No association with Sears or Veila, just wanted to pass on some tool feedback.

thanks...I've been thinking of buying a set...even though no immediate need. The curse of being a tool junkie.

I've used one on those pesky engine tin screws that don't come off, the flat head ones, turns them right out.

A few days ago someone was having trouble getting a seat bolt out. Hope they see this.

Moses,
I think the guy with the seat bolt finally got it out using a cold chisel and a LARGE hammer. Larry |
