Can I save this cylinder?

[Ducky]

Ship it to me. I'll get em out for you. Just cover shipping costs.

I appreciate the offer Boyer! @jo5hi3 is taking me to his buddy's to have a weld fixed on my beach cart and I'm going to see if he can fix the cylinder, but if not, I'll take ya up on that! Thanks man!!

Drilling a straight hole is the key. Insert extractor and apply heat and boom it should work its way out. Once you get a good straight hole goin I switch to left handed drill bits. They work well and can pull out the stuck piece sometimes.drill press is you friend too

You can find a nut that has a slightly smaller hole than the bolts diameter and weld the inside of it to the bolt and turn it out with a wrench.

will be easier than drilling.

Have used this trick many of times, works great.

It's definitely a good trick however, if one does not own a set of easy out or screw extractors, then it is even less likely they own a welder...just saying.

The two times I have tried to use an easy out resulted in a hardened steel easy out broke off in the bolt. Broken easy outs don't drill well.

Matt you and Josh come up and ride with me and I'll fix your cart and get the bolts out!

Where do you ride man?

 

[Sasquachcrap]

Lake lookout. Josh came up once. It's a small lake that feeds lake Norman. A lot less traffic. I'm about an hour north of y'all I think. I'm gonna come down a ride with you guys. But I don't think I will make it today. I have an aluminum welder and afew tools I'm also getting into powder coating so when we finish fixing your stuff I can make it look sexy too!

the problem with the broken bolt hole on the top left with that cylinder is someone already tried to drill it out and broke the drill bit off inside the hole with the bolt.. im pretty sure thers not much you can do with that.. just sayin.. i know a machinist that can weld stainless that would weld a nut onto the broken bolt. tap it with a hammer then back the broken bolt out but he wont touch it if someone started drilling before.. those pictures do not show enough detail of the broken drill bit
