I was taking the upper control arm off and one of the bolts broke off inside. Any one know how to get it out? Drill and bolt out seems to break. Not sure what grade of bolt ford used.

 

Would think if you could drill and reverse thread it you could thread a bolt in and spin it out.

 

You can take the bracket the rest of the way off and fix it on the bench. If there's a big enough nub sticking out you can weld another bolt to the nub and remove the broken one that way.

 

I was able to spend about 4 hour and drilled it out. Used some heat, and a bolt extractor and it finally came out.

 

Which bolt had snapped? The middle bolt on the UCA is huge and the 2 side bolts are pretty stout as well. Were you tightening or loosening them?

 

Loosening. It was one of the 2 side bolts. Not sure if it was a defective bolt, but when we finally got it out I had to retap the threads. Half way up one of the threads was flat, and chunk of metal in the groove.

 

Odd, glad you got it out, maybe it was put in wrong from the factory, assuming it was stock.
