I couldn't use a box wrench on the 15mm bolt because the ABS tone wheel is in the way. In addition the bolt itself seems to be in between sizes. 15mm, 5/8, & 19/32 too big &14mm too small. Can anyone please help me? Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Mar 8, 2008, 9:04 AM Post #2 of 3 (2360 views) Re: rounded bolt removal Sign In ?? Can you get a six point socket or wrench in there? Try 9/16 for a rounded 15mm and hammer it on - could trash tool and bolt is done anyway - up to you. If you have any decent shot at it there are tools for "stud extraction" that may work, T way2old Veteran / Moderator Mar 8, 2008, 3:27 PM Post #3 of 3 (2356 views) Re: rounded bolt removal Sign In Go to your local parts house and ask for a socket that will remove rounded bolts and nuts. Thet are an easy way to remove them. They are helical cut to grab harder the more you try to loosen them.
