I would over to get some CF or magnesium wheels.
If these make a big dif in performance, the busa gets BST wheels....someday when I can afford.
A left handed drill bit would be a good starting point to try.
Thanks. I'm headed back to ACE this morn....if the bit takes the shank out OR if it just makes a nice clean pilot hole....win/win situation!
Whatever you do if you decide to use an easy out DO NOT break it off in the bolt!
Had the very same thought last night. Break any bit off in there and then you will need some kind of diamond head bit or some crazy sh_t like that.
Go down to your local Sears store and ask for a set of extractor bits. They combine the left-handed drill bit and the Easy-Out in one tool.
I think I saw those at Ace. About 50some bucks. Worth it if ever this needs to be done again but I will prolly try cheaper means this time.
..and thanks, Hub for good pointers...You are right, the dremmel is my bench "drill" and it only goes clockwise. I may use it to prep the surface but IDK how much use it will be after that. It is a low/high speed dremmel but IDK if it has any kind of gear reduction for low speed. Might not have the torque to actually drill at low speed.
There is a LOT of really good info turning up on this thread. I AM HOPING this screw will not justify all the great info that I getting. Seems like about the easiest shank extraction situation that I can imagine. I'm greatful for all the info. I'll do a recap of all the advice when I get this thing out.
I had half a mind to just ride with 5 rotor bolts but I'd hate to cause any triuble withit so the 14 stays in her pen until everything is ship shape.
