Title: rear big bumper bolt rounded...
Post by: Mr Blue on 22 April 2009, 20:13

hello

The rear big bumper 17mm bolt has rounded (very rusty) and i need to remove the bumper.

Is there a way to remove the bumper without unbolting at the bumper bracket end?


thanks

Have you tried hammering on a 16mm socket?
