 Re: 1976 AZU250 Weld a nut onto it, m8 or something, then use a spanner.

Re: 1976 AZU250 They're best replaced with a proper socket cap(allen key type) bolt anyway. To get it out weld any thing you can onto it, even a bit of scrap you can grab with vise-grips.

Re: 1976 AZU250 Joolz, Russell,
Thanks for the tips. I'll replace with socket-cap bolts. Are the bolts standard metric measurements? Also, should I use stainless, or some other type?

Re: 1976 AZU250 Do you know of a good source for these Ken? All I seem to find online is stainless!

Re: 1976 AZU250 Oh bugger  If you can get the other bolt off, can you remove the rocker and weld another nut onto the top of the protruding thread? I had luck that way - once the head sheared off there was no force on the threads and in fact I could just undo the protruding stud by hand. If there has been corrosion occurring due to the dissimilar metals though it might still put up a fight.
