Help please!!

Well to make a long story short.............I broke my posi ,but what actually broke was some of the bolts that go around it to hold the ring in place. It has 3.73's and they seem to be fine its just I cant get them unbolted off the posi. Does anyone have advice on how to get them off or are my gears done for!!
Thanks

Well that the problem the head of the bolt broke off so there's nowhere to grap it from to remove it.

Good luck finding a left hand thread bolt extractor.

They can be drilled and taken out, I've done it, they probably aren't that tight.
You aren't using a ring gear spacer are you?

No they dont have a ring gear spacer. How hard is it to drill & take them out?

seeing how they are left hand thread, when you drill them and the drill catches it'll start backing them out. As long as there was no loctite or anything on them they should come out pretty easy.
