I've had hit or miss luck with broken bolts and studs. Last week I tried one of these extractors. It was a bent and snapped flush third member stud on a Toyota. First battery wouldn't budge it so I used a fully charge 18v Makita 1/4" impact and it actually worked. I had nothing to loose other than pull the axles and remove the diff.

Who was the supplier of the extractors & the 1/4" impact wrench ?

Sorry, I thought I posted the pic. They are Craftsman. I picked it up at Ace Hardware but Lowes says they carry them too.

Ace just had the #2. It was $10 but worth it. It saved me hours of work.
