Installing Front Left Axle Assembly on 90 Syncro :
I have a box full of the Triple Square style bolts ready to replace the
infamous allen head ones. Attempt at first Allen=stripped. Attempt #2
Allen=stripped! But, that's Ok because it's the end of my '2hr after work
window' and it's time for my ROTR (that's rum on the rocks!)
Now it is a new day and I have 10hrs before the end of my workday, and the
beginning of another 2hr work window, to search for interesting tips to help
me out of this bind. Anyone know of any tricks to remove these stripped
allen head bolts?
I've done this job quite a few times and never had this problem, not once.
As always, I soak these with penetrant, clean the recess meticulously, tap
the allen socket into place and gently (never using an air ratched)tug until
the bolt releases. Oddly enough, this was to be my first replacement of
these with the Triple Square style.........
Thanks!
