sixtyfiveford has a method of putting a piece of copper pipe into the hole and building up weld using a stick welder until he gets enough to weld a nut and extract the bolt. The copper sleeve protects the threads. It's nice to have another technique in case all else fails. Thanks for another great video.
When I worked at a Caddy dealership, had to do that a lot on alum. blocks, pulled head bolts, just drilled it with hand drills and if it tore up threads, I put in a Heli-coil or Timesert, threads don't go to bottom. But ya can only do what customer wants. I would have recommended it, so it's on him if it won't take the torque and threads pull. Glad ya got work.
The drill went off center because when you were pushing the quill it moved the head. If you’d have locked the column after centering I bet that wouldn’t have happened. The broken fragment would still have buggered up the threads but the off center was definitely visible in the video with the radial drill thrusting sideways.
I was going to say the same thing, when applying pressure on the quill you could see the drill bit drift away from center towards the opposite side of the hole
I would have taken the other part of the broken bolt....chucked in a lathe and drilled a hole 1/8 hole in it... Used as drill guide ....popped a torx bit in....screwed out....
That hurt watching. I don´t know if you can´t lock the head, but the way everything bends out of center and moves to the right, minute 15:25 and so on, no wonder there are some stripped threads. Good that it worked, but not a great look.
I've drilled out a few dozen broken bolts in automotive applications and I'll be danged but i was never smart enough to think of using a bushing. SMH. I feel so dumb. Thanks for the humiliation!! JK. Seriously though I am going to add that to my pack of facts to use in the future. Such a simple way to avoid thread damage. I do like to use LH bits when available in the right size even though I've only had one come out that way maybe twice. You never know when you will get lucky. Great job today.
Kyle, talk about getting lucky! Not with the extractor working out for you, but for not breaking a drill bit! The side load that was put on the bits when you were working the quill was stressful to watch, lol. Maybe lock the head swivel axis next time… But nonetheless, I do enjoy the channel and the honesty of mistakes made for all to learn from. Keep on carryin on.
That went about as well as some of my best (at home) broken bolt extractions. Right down to the nasty sounds the long bit made when it couldn't quite get a bite on that stud. Which reminds me, only been ignoring a broken exhaust stud on my old truck for 7 years...
I worked as a mechanic with a guy back in the 70's that was something else. He'd wait until he had and EZ-Out broke off in the broken stud before he would ask for help. I told him one time he made Goober Pyle look like a rocket scientist. Hated picking up after him. Glad you got that one out.
I think all of us mechanics has had one of those guys before. We had one that we called powder puff he never could figure out why we called him that. But it was known all over the shop that he could take a powder puff and beat an anvil to death. Lol.
Hey Kile you yung guys got it good when it come to tools . having battery powered over newmatic type . I've drilled out a tap with a carbide drill bit had to order it and it got the job done but the bit was damaged #21 . good luck keep up the good work .JM 8 point socket .
Thread depth engagement needed is only as much as the diameter of bolt for maximum strength…at least this is what I have read…please correct me if I am mistaken…that was a good good giter done Kyle…you could see the drill walking in the final depth….easy outs are either great or really bad….cheers, Paulie
FYI ... just did a quick search engine: For maximum strength generally its recommended to have 1.5 Diameter engagement for maximum strength/sheer capabilities. [so he should be ok]
that's got to be one of the worst to do .i work on a lot of stuff that has bin out in the whether for 50 plus years and it vary rarely goes eazy. just found your channel keep up the good work.
Dude! You really need to LOCK the arm rotation on that radial arm drill press. That looked real amateur hour with that arm swinging around almost snapping drill bits... 😖
It was equally painful for me to watch. I left the head unlocked so that I can let it float but probably should’ve locked it once it found its spot but hey when you’re working and trying to film things, sometimes you miss stuff. But I know the Internet has no tolerance for that.
Hi Kyle as you say this kind of operation can quickly become a nightmare... here you are lucky, I think, because the threaded piece is not rusted, it is enclosed in the engine housing. I have done this kind of operation many times on motorcycle cylinder heads, and here it is not the same job. When the exhaust studs break, it is because they are rusted, and the rust goes into the aluminum part. The last time I did that, I spent two whole days with a tungsten carbide cutter. In addition, on a motorcycle cylinder head, the studs are inclined and therefore are not perpendicular to the joint plane, it is very difficult to position on a drill. In addition, Japanese manufacturers use treated and hard steel to make these studs, it is strange because the efforts are not important to hold the exhaust pipes in place. I have never managed to use this type of extractor, the efforts are very important and if the tool breaks, it is a disaster. With the small sizes, the extractor makes the broken part "swell" and blocks it even more. However, I also have the conical drill bits that go with it. I systematically put stainless steel studs in place of the original ones, it no longer rusts and it holds very well. Congratulations again for this work which is, I believe, the most difficult in repairing an engine. Xris Envoyer des commentaires Résultats de traduction disponibles
The radial drill press is a Carlton I presume ? And such a machine is best for doing that type of job cost effective. Great job Kyle. Greeting from Germany.
YaY....I've never had success with "easy-out" extractors. When the tool is wippy wapped into the pilot hole, it creates outward pressure locking the bolt even more. Like you mentioned, busted exhaust bolts get a welded nut on em as the heat also helps loosen.
These appear to be aftermarket studs rather than factory-style TTY bolts. That's why he used the awkward term "stud bolts". I don't think any but the very sleaziest engine rebuild would re-use TTY head bolts. It's other places such as main caps where it's tempting to reuse fasteners.
@@aaronfritz7234 You have to wonder if the marketing around strength encourages the aftermarket manufacturers to over-harden studs. The original designers can factor in all of the parameters to optimize for zero assembly failures and long life. Hobbyists are only going to look at the single marketing number.
Description says they are ARP head studs. Usually a good upgrade for increased clamping pressure when turning up the boost. They use really high grade metals which is why his bits had trouble biting. Hardness probably was a factor in snapping, the only question is if that happened in the car or when they were taking the engine apart.
Does your drill head not have a lateral column lock??? Watching you walk those bits up to an inch (at the chuck) made my nuts shrivel. Damn, man, you got lucky. 😂. Try centering the bit and locking the column/head next time, and you won’t butcher the threads. Otherwise, nice job. 😅
you messed up the thread. your drill bushings weren't the right size an it was wobbling all over. yea you really need a carbide drill for that. expensive but the extra stiffness makes a huge difference. steel bits wobble all over the place
Your drill bushing wasn't long enough. Make it miss the stud end by about 1/8 - 3/16 & then drill. Keeps it centered even if the stud broke at an angle. I have a selection of carbide drills to help in these situations. (Even have used a cement drill resharpened on my diamond wheel to get it drilled).

Nice, upvoted. But one still needs a flat-ish surface on the stub face, or the weld pool can hit the wall, even if only partially.
@@marcosmota1094 If the weld pool partially touched the wall, I don't think it would stick to the threads.
I've seen the vid. Brilliant technique he shows.
ICWelds used the technique on a field repair - ua-cam.com/video/tL_oLlnMh6k/v-deo.html
Yes and no, here the broken bolt was too deep, welding would not be possible.🐞

It’s always great to see someone else’s take on a task because you never know what technique will dove the problem.
Good job there, broken bolt/stud extraction is akin to metal dentistry.🐞
With the aluminum block and the hole so deep. I feel like that was your best option for the situation at hand.
Congrats on getting that out with an extractor. Never seem to have much luck myself with that style. I'd roll with using the old threads too.
Great job Kyle! I love the radial drill press method! Thanks!
I would have taken the other part of the broken bolt....chucked in a lathe and drilled a hole 1/8 hole in it...
Used as drill guide ....popped a torx bit in....screwed out....
Concentrated alum solution will dissolve steel in the aluminium casting. Takes about 24 hours
Outstanding job Kyle.
Sometimes on hard bolts I use Cobalt drill bits.
Nice setup BTW! 👍
Have a great day.👍🇺🇸👍
Thanks Ed

Great video, question.. What is the Straps on your boots, protection id imagine but specifically?
He's made a video on them. They are protection but help with his plantar fasciitis

You better go buy a lottery ticket seeing you had success with an Easy Out. I never have any luck using them. Either they walk out or break.
Nice work, those things make my worst nightmare, love the bushings!
Very good video. , love seeing repairs like that . Good job .
Everyone's favourite job. Love it when an extractor works.

Nice job again Kyle. You have to wonder how your customer managed to snap it off, tightening it up.
My Congradulanions ! 💥
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience.

Those boots are insane looking! What brand are they?
lock the column and the head jesus.
Great content mate!
What's up with Lion lathe? Any new episodes coming out soon?
very clever to create those drill guides. a shame you did not have the correct size of quality drill bits on hand. thanks for sharing.
Hey man very good video do all of them no matter what they are
Some people might say it’s not very smart to wear rings on your fingers when using machine tools…just sayin’😅
Good one!! .. I like broken bolt videos!! :) .. maybe there is a style of Loctite for head bolts?? .. might help!!
Thought those head are torque to yield bolts or stretch bolts. If so the are generally one time use. Might be also why it broke.

Good fix, but I think it is odd that you use your ajustable wrenches backwards.
Drill bushings should be just a thousand under the size of the hole?

Different - thanks
My game plan is to be some wear else , to many ways it can go horribly and expensively wrong ! Ask me how I know lol.
Not a stupid question but what have you got on ur feet??
Essentially strap-on floor mats to reduce foot pain. He explained them in an earlier video.

Would you have actually posted this if you failed to get the bolt out
Hmm, Subaru, head gasket leaker!!!
The goal was to extract the broken bolt.
You succeded in that.
Ignore the experts on here.

Thanks for the "tell" ! Good stuff.
