Re: bash plate


Nuts only as far as I know.

And yes Easy Outs are still available and are very handy! I've had to use one not that long ago... can't remember why now, but it is just a reverse threaded piece that you can drill into the stuck bolt, once it's in you just unscrew it.

Re: bash plate


Rich,
There are various grades of Locktite available from a "light" grade which will break with the use of a tool to a "heavy-duty" grade which is virtually undo-able.

Re: bash plate


Thanks Kev, that's good to know. I didn't have any spring washers of the correct diameter, so I've only re-used the existing bolts. I checked all the others and they were all tight. I will look around for the light-duty locktite; presumably available at hardware and car accessory stores?

Re: bash plate


You could also try some nail polish, I'm sure you would have a bottle in the glove box, or at least the missus might. Supposedly works just like lock-tite.

Yes Rich, easily available at most hardwares and auto shops.

Here is the link to the products page on the Loctite website.
Loctite products website
Scroll down to the Automotive Adhesives & Sealants section and click the Download Product Catalogue link.
This will give you all the information you will need about how to choose the Loctite to suit your application requirements.

Re: bash plate


Loctite comes in varying grades.
Once applied it will secure the bolt.
If you need to undo a bolt that has loctite on ,all you need is heat.
The grade of loctite depends on the amount of heat you need to relaese the bolt.
So depending on the amount of heat in the area you will be using thr loctite will depend on the grade of loctite as well.
I use loctite all the time and have no problems with it.

Re: bash plate


Kev, in answer to the problem of removing the bolt with the sheared off head, go to a BIG hardware supplier "T.Warburton" and get yourself a left hand drill bit. Then use a drill that can be reversed to use. The action of the drill going into the stud, is that it is also trying to undo the threads. I have bought several sets of these drills for various customers that I previously dealt with. Hope this helps. emoticon emoticon

Another note to broken bolts.

If the bolt is a Hi-Tensile bolt with a broken head, a "MASONRY" drill bit will go into the broken bolt, use a little "kero" as lubricant. again hope this helps. emoticon emoticon

Re: bash plate


Dear Members,

The T30 bash plate is now in stock. It took me ages to find it again and have them imported, but all good now and it is available through the Online X-Trail Shop.

The T31 Bash plates are on their way too.
