Help! Stripped bolt
Hey guys, I was working on the driveshaft and while trying to remove one of the 12mm 12 point bolts on the flange, it became stripped. Now I'm frustrated that 1 bolt is holding me back from finishing the job. Any suggestions on how to remove the bolt?

Some super epoxy or jbweld in the socket should do it. You may not be able to recover the socket though. Just be sure to clean the bolt good with some brake cleaner.
I'm surprised you stripped one.
