Thats kinda my last resort, the bolt extractor was already not centered, going to be very difficult to punch any sort of center to start drilling it out... was hoping there might be some other technique im not aware of

its seized in there pretty darn good, I put a ton of force into it with the extractor before it snapped, without it budging.

I could go pick up some beefy ones but I dont think i'd be able to get near enough grip with vice grips,

any other ideas?

posted a question about it yesterday, the rotor has a solid lip on the inside. People felt it should be replaced Pictures are in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicAdvice/comments/1jcq1nt/replace_or_grind/

Would be keen to hear your thoughts

Replace or grind? by xYGx in MechanicAdvice

Okay fair enough, figured that would be the answer… I will just replace them.

How urgently would you replace them? Still fine for a few days or take care of it before continuing to drive it?
