I have a 2004 Balabio with the Allen headed bolt on the rear brake Caliper carrier rounded out. (The one with the R pin in the end that anchos it to the side frame). I therefore need to get the bolt out and my immediate thoughts are:
1. Drill out the head and then pull off with rear wheel and then remove body of bolt and replace.
2. drill a hole into the bolt head down the Allen hole and try to use an “easy out”. I have used them before, but think the probability of success is low.
3. weld a nut to the top of the bolt and then turn out the resulting mess.
I could use some advice here, as I can’t be the first person with this problem, so what is the preferred method and finally where do as I get a replacement bolt or is there an alternative?
thanks.
