The u joints snapped in my Jeep and sheared off the bolts from the SYE to the driveshaft. Anyone have a tool for removing the sheared bolts?

Chris do you have an idea what size it may be ? They normally go by bolt size. Are they broken clean off or is there something left to grab? I have two type and a few different sizes.

If I hear one more story about a broken bolt on a jeep today I am going to go nuts...












Sorry, Chris heard about my day with a Jeep and broken upper shock bolts and after 4 hours of free labor drilling the bolts out and marking out probably over $100 worth of drill bits the customer thought I was responsible for his ten year old rusted bolt.....................




Im glad today is almost over.

chris I feel the yoke is removable if you tak it off and do it in a drill press it will be an easy job. When drilling it out it should continue to spin out they are usally a through thread. Plus once off you can soak it for a day in pb blaster.
