Gday fellas,
Yesterday i removed the Yoshi RS3 Stainless to give 'er a bit o' polish, and in the process i managed to shear off two bolts. Before taking them out, i lubed them with WD40, and they just wouldnt budge past 2 turns. Ive tried everything to get them out (hacksaw to make flathead groove, file the sides to remove with shifter, easy-outs, drilling them), but they just do not want to move and keep bluntening my drillbits.
If anyone has the miracle answer out there, or has the mechanical aptitude to give me a hand (i dont mind travelling a few hours for help), i'll gladly reimburse with your favourite methanolic beverage
Faithfully,
Ben
P.s. ive considered cutting it and getting a new end piece made up to make an RS3 shorty, just wanted to see if there was a cheaper option first.
