Brockport Bill 1,714 #1 Posted February 4, 2022 this must have happened to someone before? What's solution to a Hydro Tranny fan that had the bolt broken off - how to get out the remaining bolt piece and install new fan and bolt?? Yuk!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 63,090 #2 Posted February 4, 2022 Weld a nut to it? It will heat the threads and loosen the stuck piece. You could even follow the weld with some wax or oil to penetrate the threads. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveoman1966 3,760 #4 Posted February 4, 2022 Center drill the broken bolt and use an Easy-Out to remove it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 63,090 #5 Posted February 4, 2022 I hate to say this, but many PO’s would simply break out their welder and fill the hole in.. capturing the new fan with it. Hubs, axles, pulleys… they’re all weldable according to the POOM (Previous Owner’s Operating Manual) 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
