[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 128525, member: 13825"] if you can get to it with a screw extractor odds are you can get to it with a welder, if your local shop wants you to wait 3 weeks to get to it, I'd start looking around for a mobile service truck, ( you can even call about to rental places or Ag stores and ask who they use, or know of in your area, and also, most rental shops rent welders too ?? as a second option maybe for you if you know how to weld that is) then with a mobile truck/welder, they can come out to site and weld things for you, if not just remove it for you, as most will have experience ding the weld a nut onto the head of things and remove that way, plus the heat from welding also helps loosen things up to come out easier! as again if space is tight I also doubt your going to have room to try and re shape the head of the bolt to a smaller size socket once you get bolt out, I'd replace with a new bolt, or if you can get specs on bolt size , try finding one online at a online bolt shop, I have to think they would be way way cheaper then buying from Bob cat direct [/QUOTE]
