ok this is really starting to tick me off..
today i was attempting to put on a nacs case saver for my 400
so i didnt think it would be that big of a deal...so i go out there and spray some liquid wrench on the bolts so they come out easy.....after a while I come back out and commence the disassembly...
well the bottom bolt came out easy....but the top bolt was a whole diff story...it came out but with a lot of touch and go...
well i got the stock saver off and go to put the nacs on it and the bottom bolt is too short??? wtf... no bolts came with the saver..are they supposed to?
so then i tried to put the top bolt in...it goes all the way in untill the end just before it tightens and snap!! broke....
this is about the 5th bolt that has broken on my quad..it appears that they are made out something cheaper than pot metal...
so what to do now? that top hole where the bolt is broke...should I attempt to get the bolt out by drilling it?
or just take it to a machine shop...im afraid if I drill too far...ill go too far in my case...
any suggestions appreciated
