Very nice cage!


You know what it looks like? Remember in The Road Warrior when Mad Max is driving the tanker and the bad guys are in pursuit? The leader of the good guys is along side Max with a buggy that looks exactly like that.

You can get a TORX bit that fits right into a damaged 3mm hex head if you pound it in with a hammer. Then, use a ratcheting screwdriver to unscrew the bolt. If the bolt has locktite make sure to heat it up to loosen the locktite. I've used that same dam TORX bit for years for stripped 3mm heads in all my cars. It's one of my most valuable tools. I'd suggest everybody go get one.

my buddy told me another way to take them out as well. Use a dremel to cut new holes in it and then unscrew them. If you use this method and they are threadlocked, use some heat like demon said.
