anyone know what size 12 pt. socket i need to remove the pinch bolt on the upper balljoint? its looks to be around 13mm(assuming its metric, most everything else is) but i want to make sure before i go and buy one tomorrow. is a deep socket necessary?
new question: anyone ever round off the head on the pinch bolt? i used plenty of PB blaster, a propane torch on the 'clampy' looking part and the correct size socket, it didn't help. i'm planning to pick up one of those bolt extractor kits tomorrow and seeing what i can do with one of those. anyone have a better idea that doesn't require a welder?
