reubj Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi Everyone - I tried to remove the tranny skidplate on my '89 Pioneer. I thought I had the bolt free but it spins ... and spins ... and spins. Is this bolt attached to some kind of weld nut inside the frame that has broken loose? Any suggestions? Thanks.

jimoshel Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 You got it. If you can reach the loose nut with a wrench, or vise grips, then remove the bolt. Otherwise you have to remove the head of the bolt. cutting torch, grinder or hammer and chisel and then drop the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reubj Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Thanks. I'll start looking for an access opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 WHEN you get it out... I used self tappers to put it back in. Works fine, been there for years, don't have to mess with those pesky weld nuts. If I don't have to re-use them I always re-move them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
