Bit of penetrant wouldn't hurt

You say that to all the boys Slips. I'm not buying it.

LOL

Trust me I'm unprofessional

Yeah, when torquing, inch pounds and foot pounds are two different things.

mmm, the progression of a repair:

1 overtorque, snap
2 ask for advice
3 happy nongineers suggest easyouts
4 easyout stuck in case
5 drills burned and broken in case along with very stuck easy out
6 "new" ideas from nongineers
7 burn marks and missed hammer blows
8 "newer" ideas from nongineers uncles' memory
9 tools everywhere, swear words hang like fog
10 part taken to machine shop, $50 (or less) and a little ribbing from an old timer and its better than new.

I'm REALLY hoping the Grab-it I bought doesn't snap. Considering what it's rated for I seriously would doubt that would happen. These case bolts seem to be made of cheese.

Cheese or peanut butter... Whichever was cheaper that day.

Just an update -

Took off the sprocket cover today (was changing the chain and sprocket anyway). Enough bolt was exposed to get it with pliers. Hit it with a ton of PB and worked it out really slow.

Thanks for the advice everyone.
