Replacing the Starter
I have begun replacing the starter when i came across the 2 stubborn as hell bolts to remove. i was able to remove one with a cheater bar (No air tools :( ) and the second i can not seem to budge. Is there an easier way to get this bolt out?

Heat is your friend there man. Get it good and hot and then get that breaker bar on it, she'll go
|
Well there's not enough room for that breaker bar. I stripped the bolt so I'm not sure what to do now..
|
bolt extractor kit?
|
Put a piece of fine metal mesh over a 6 point quality socket with as big a bar as you can use, or get a length of pipe to go over your handle. Heat around the bolt (not the bolt) with a propane torch, whack the socket on with a hammer and crank it off. Poor mans fix but it works. Works great for rounded off lug nuts too.

Do you have room to get at it with an impact gun? If so, go to harbor freight and get a cheap electric impact and get it out. Mine has saved my ass MANY times!
