bolt broke, need help I'm in dire need of the wealth of knowledge here. The cross pin retaining bolt broke right where the threads end and the pin starts. I have seen quite of few bolts so it looks like there might still be a thread left holding it in. My offset drill won't align straight to drill it due to the carrier being too close to the housing. AND with out the cross pin out, can't pull the axles to pull the carrier. Has anyone dealt with this problem? If so, howdya get it out?

You can buy a kit that has the drill, pilot and extractor made for this also. I am not a the shop right now so I do not have the part #.
