Stripped demon bolt, need idea

Gauge

I take back everything I said about these bolt extractors. Went down to garage ready to cut the night away. Decided to try again.

This time I went real slow and rocker it hard back and forth to dig the teeth in and used a hammer as well to get it as far down as it could go.

Little by little it creaked and turned until, SNAP! the glorious sound. So so glorious.

Both bolts are out, time to jack it up and get the easier ones off and install my test pipes.

I feel like I am in a very small crowd of people that has successfully done this. 4 hours into this install so far and I've just taken off 2 bolts lol.

Bolt extractors saved my *** too. Took it to an exhaust shop and said they couldn't get it off with the first few tries so they didn't want to do it and strip the bolt. A couple days later, me and some friends went to tackle it and sure enough.....1 rounded off bolt.....damn shop. Bolt extractor popped that sucker free in about 10 mins!

6 years later and I'm in the exact same situation as you, Gauge. My passenger side bolt came off easily, the driver's side bolt got rounded... Thought I was doomed as most shops refuse to touch this kind of stuff, but I stumbled upon this thread. Going to pick up some bolt extractors and give it another go today, wish me luck. Currently driving around with only one pipe installed haha
