Help! I have tried to take out the rocker bolt I stripped about 3 weeks ago I've tried every type of sockets to get out but since it's the last rocker and I have a 2002 Camaro I have no leverage or room.

Now the bolt is basically rounded off as you can see in the picture.

Does anybody have and idea of how I can get this off?

 

I can't upload a picture on my iPhone so I'll upload in the morning

 

I would just pull the head and put it up on the bench, then hammer on a smaller cheap socket. It would cost you a head gasket and possibly a set of head bolts, but it would take maybe a few hours instead of weeks.

 

weld a nut to the end of the bolt.

 

I would try this before pulling the head, unless the heads need to be pulled regardless.

 

i have never tried it but before pulling the head i wonder if you put some j.b weld in a socket and stuck it on the bole overnight to let it setup if it would hold enough to break it loose ? may be worth a try before having to pull the head.

 

This x2, it works great for removing broken exhaust bolts from heads. Ground the welder on the opposite end of the head so the current flows through the nut and into the stud not into the nut alone. Penetration is the key here.
