ok im in the process of installing a body lift on my truck and got into a little snag today....when removing the bolts from the cab i removed the 4 main bolts however i wanted to removed the bumper and remove the radiator support bolts and i got three of the four bumper bracket bolts off. i don't know how to get the other off. the head is stripped, and i can't budge it. the nut it is connected to is welded to the inside of the body mount. not sure if im making myself clear so let me know if im not. i need help

 

Anyway you can take a picture of what your talking about?? Head you to sears and get a set of the bolt-outs. They work wonders!!

 

x2 on the bolt outs. They work like magic

I say go for a torch.

 

or weld a nut to the head of the bolt and get your socket/wrench on that.

 

wow went to sears this morning and got the bolt outs...amazing, i wish i new this sooner! these things are great, body lift done on the cab...tomorrow i will tackle the bed and auto shift linkage because today i got completely agrivated with the linkage.....thanks guys

 

I've never had good luck with easy-outs/bolt-outs but the welded nut plus an impact always works for me.
