Subject:Removing stripped cv axle bolts.

I have never had to drill out one of these bolts.
Using a air grinder and a flat fiber cut-off disk, I can cut away
from the base of the bolt and once I'm about 3/4 or less through
the bolt, the tension is gone and it just hand screws out.

Now if the bolt is on the wheel end, I take the whole wheel
assembly out of the arm and do it on a bench.
