- If you try all the standard "easy" methods and you haven't gotten it
- out yet, you might consider burning it out. Some experienced welders
- know how to use a welder (electric, I think) to burn out the broken
- bolt. This probably works only in certain circumstances (like NOT for
- aluminum) and I don't know much about it. Ask a good welder/junk yard
- person. Good luck.
