John Heiter Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Not sure about screws but I was looking at "clutch kits" for atv's recently and the one for mine that consists of two coil springs about the size of your thumb is going for $189. I wonder if there's any markup there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shred Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 If anything's sticking out, grab it with vice-grips. If not, then you get to pick a level of destruction you like and go with it. Apply penetrating oil first. Sometimes you can take a sharp punch and a hammer and tap the screw out turning it by hitting it off-center with the punch in the direction you want it to go. If that fails, then drill presses and mills and EDM's quickly get involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standles Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I am not sure of the diameter of the screw involved but they do make ez-outs for just this thing. You can drill a smaller hole in the broken screw and the ezouts are reversed threaded. This simply means that as you are tightening the ezout into the screw it is loosening the screw. Again I don't know the size but I assume small. Don't know if they make ezouts that small. http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/may2003/techtotech.cfm http://www.globalair.com/discussions/ac_to...le.asp?msgID=17 http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.doB...pid=00966202000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmon Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 ok,i need help. since the elevation screw was sheared off leaving part of the screw in the slide. what's a good way to remove the remaining screw from the slide? lynn p.s. bill, i think that's way the call it a screw. left hand drill bit that should get it out as long as the screw wasnt bottomed out in the hole, you should be OK. if it is, well its gonna be tough to get out.

lynn jones Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 yeah, the screw is below the hole. the ez-out thing should work. thanks for the advise on the penetrating oil, good idea. lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuildSF4 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 +1 on Harmons suggestion, left handed bit first. (If it drills into the screw and the screw doesn't come out you can still try an ez-out.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidball Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 I was going to guess the CR Speed screw/nut combination for a mag holder, but they are only $8 plus shipping . . . hurts just as much, I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmoney Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Hey Lynn, Before you start drilling around, you might try the old trick of degreasing everything then using a drop of super glue on a little allen wrench. If there's a fairly flat surface left, and the screw's not tight in there, sometimes you can back 'em right out. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerT Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 My brother is a sales rep for a company that sells the screws for spinal fusion. I can get you a single screw from him that cost well over $600.00. Then you would be well and truely "SCREWED". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
