Use the cutting disc. That thing owns. It worked like a charm when I had to "finesse" my AEM intake to fit for my swap.

and by finesse he means hack and mangle into several pieces

I like to "finesse" things with a sledgehammer. Super fun.

BFH ownz my auto skills.

Sears? You can get them at Home Depot or I believe even Walmart.

And yeah, don't get the battery powered one.

When you're done grinding on the Sol, you can make CDs spin all the way up your wall. Click Here

Damn, wonder what those run in the 1/4 mile

Hey B, forget your car, take the dremel and a stack of CD's to the track

 

[Seany-izzle]

haha, we did that in my dorm room, put a binder against a wall and made it do the jump like 4 times.

i learned 2 things durring my swap

1 - "bolt on" really means "if you fuck with it enough you can make it work"
2 - working on cars is a delicate art of beating the shit out of it with a hammer

I just hate it when you stripped a bolt, so you drill a hole in the bolt and try to easy out it, and it cracks the bolt head, so the easyout is now worthless, so you beat on that stuck bolt with a hammer and beat it up so badly it's mangled and fuxored and can't be removed by any means available...

And then you take it to someone and they have said bolt out 5 seconds later because THEY happen to have a pneumatic hammer. Fucking alignment shop. Charged me $30 to put on an upper rear control arm because of one motherfucking stuck bolt I needed removed.

 

[dohch22a4]

BUAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! Ask Smonkeyboy about his rear lower control arm.

 

[posol]

thats pretty much where i am with my alternator right now...

onyl i can't take it anywhere cuz the car don't drive, and when it does, i won't have enough "juice" to get anywhere

 

[asmallsol]

what exactly is the problem. I hate the location of the alternator on both the bseries and dseries. Try getting it from the bottom. I ended up on my d-series just removing the entire thing including all the brackets as one peice. Then I could actually get the right tools on them.

 

[ScrapinSi]

Whats wrong B? Need an alternator? My buddy has one out of a 95 GSR I think...

 

[cxjon]

the sol is going to nickle and dime ya to death

i have no alt belt on.
tensioner bolt is stripped round.

i tried, bill tried, E tried, mike tried... its just fucking round. even with the bolt out thing i bought, it still just spins.

mike is probably going to help me out out by brinign over his mini sawzall... and were just going to cut the whole fucking alternator braket apart

 

[asmallsol]

take out the bottom bolt, then the 2 that mount the bracket to the car ( you can do this with a wrench). Then just take the entire thing out as one unit.

Take the Dremel that you're going to buy for the head tabs and use it to grind two flat edges on the rounded bolt, then use a big pair of vice grips to turn it out.

i realize this
but it still doesn't solve the stripped bolt on the bracket problem

 

[asmallsol]

once you get the thing out, its halfway easy. With a drill, make a hole in the center of the bolt, then use a screw exscractor to get it out.

 

[handlebarsfsr]

have you tried taking a dremel tool and cutting a line across it and using a flathead screwdriver to get it out? you may need a breaker bar but that should work.

edit- i missed the part that you dont have one. any cutting tool (drill, file, etc) will work.
