I learned this the hard way! Next time (hopefully not a next time) get a dremel with a few of the small green grinding stones. This will make getting the extractor out very easy. Next time I will use the green dremel bit to just remove the bolt! Those extractor bits are very hard, bolts are soft.

Absolutely, it is part of the blessed trinity of getting stuck stuff unstuck or installed - shock (really unloading the tension/adhesion between the bolt and the hole), heat (the blue wrench, the fire pliers), and seldom used vibration. Okay, there is also penetrating fluids, and slow and steady back and forth. And when it all goes to hell, break out the hot metal glue gun and weld a nut to the bolt stub you just snapped the head off. Or, maybe break off a few drill bits and extractors as foreplay first. Thor's hammer to bang a slot into the mangled head? This is why god made visegrips. This is the part of living in the North East that I don't miss. It builds character though.

On the transmission pan bolts just dropping a nut over the end of the bolt and filling the nut with weld. Wait til it's not glowing red then back it out.

Mechanic here from Quebec dealing with this everyday. Gonna give you 2-3 tricks to help you in the future. First off when going with the torche always have a spray bottle full of water. Help not burning rubber stuff, wires, what not and keep the heat localised. Also its easy to stop a small fire and it can be used to quench the bolt, helping further releashing it Second: hammer the socket on. Vibration helps brake the rust off and help the socket bite into the bolt. 3/8 socket is a must for rusted/striped 10mm Third: dont be scared of cutting the head off with the torches. The heat will help relashing whatever is keeping the bolt from turning and you are sure to have something to grab on afterwards. If the bolt goes through in this scenario dont try to back it off, screw it. The thread inside the aluminium are cleans, the ones on top arent it will go by the top like butter Hopes it help anyone with rusted out bolts

In this case you can try to weld a nut or the “bolt” let it cool down and try to unscrew not with impact gun 😃 if it’s snap do it again. And with welding you heated it too. I’ve been using this method on a lot of snapped or rusty bolts and even on a head bolt and it works good every time. Sometimes it’s very frustrating and slow ,but it’s pretty straightforward. Good luck if you have that problem in future( I hope you not) but you can try this method.

I think you could easily get those remaining studs out with stud extractors. It comes out much easier than you’d think. A little PB blaster. Also using an impact I’ve found yields much better results. The impact hammers tends to knock past the rust a lot better than using a ratchet. My steps are usually impact first, weld nuts on, and then stud extractor.
@Joseph-C
@Joseph-C 2 жыл бұрын
First step should always be soak in penetrating oil. After bolts have soaked, overnight with a few applications if it's this bad, then IMPACT ONLY. Using the slow gradual torque of a hand wrench will twist off the end of the bolts every single time. If impact gun cannot reach a bolt then at least hammer on the surface of the head to shock the threads loose.

Guys clean up the the underside of that truck every time you change your tires. My 2010 looked new compared to yours. Clean, wipe down, and touch up the paint!

Had to deal with this with my 2008 tundra a few months ago when I serviced my transmission and changed the filter. Ended up all besides 3 bolts snapped and we ended having to drill them out and get some helicoils from our local auto zone and when putting the pan back on used a healthy amount of anti seize to hopefully help in the future.

Every Toyota tech I've spoken to says if you change your transmission fluid with full synthetic fluid every 60k you never need to change the filter - even if it's a heavy work truck. One told me he saw a 400k mi Tundra produce farm truck that followed that rule. Tranny switched on a dime and never had a filter change, just the absolute best quality fluid ON TIME each time. It's more expensive but worth it for the longetivity.

Great video all together though. **Everyone in salted road states be aware** those pan bolts will be rusted, and have high chance of breaking off in the transmission housing. They'll need to be extracted, or drilled out .. possibly retaped. Start with a center punch marking in dead center of bolt. Then drill with smallest bit, gradually working your way up. 3/16 usually will push the bolt out. Use lots of heat if you have enough bolt to grab with vise grips. Cover internals with aluminum foil, wrap tight except for the bolt you're working on. You can also weld a nut on. Use pb blaster on the pan bolts days prior. You can massage in with a qtip.

An ounce of prevention. Every time I'm under my 2016 Limited, I spray any areas showing even the slightest sign of rust with flat black Rust-Oleum. Only takes a couple of minutes. Even touch up the exhaust with the Rust-Oleum mat-black High Heat formula. The underside still looks pretty decent. No rusted bolts and similar.

I grew up in California and worked on cars for over 30 years. I typically did not have to deal with rust the way you guys do. But the torch, cutoff tool, saws all, penetrating oil became my friend. I'd usually get as much penetration oil on the rusted areas, & let it soak over night or even a few days if possible. It was usually the magic along with the torch that worked. If you move to California your hourly rate has to be pretty high, in order to survive. But that's what you have to do, plus work every angle to maximize profits or you will go out of business. The weather is nice, traffic is horrible. (I moved to North West Arkansas for a better quality of life.)

I went through this exact pan issue a few weeks ago. The pan rotted where the part is welded for the plug. The whole thing broke off with the plug. 10 bolts broke for the pan as well. Had to drill them all out. I blame the dissimilar metals for the breaking bolts issue. Even after removing the pan the remainder of the bolts still snapped off. So soft bolts, I was only using a 1/4 ratchet. I did this all on my back in my driveway. I almost threw in the towel like you did. Even the one bolt in the back side toward the center broke like yours. 2 days later up and running. Fluid was nasty. Almost 300k miles still trucking

I rub some fluid film on the bolts on the oil pan/plugs/etc from a bucket. Sometimes I spray it, but it's easier to use a rag and get a thick application on the engine parts while avoiding belts and exhaust manifolds. 10mm bolts are just going to rust away, it's a pain and being between steel and alu makes it even worse often from galvanic corrosion, vibratight, or some type of additional sacrificial coating helps but needs to be redone every few years as the coating on the steel bolts weakens and wears off.

I put new oem struts, shocks, and new oem breaks at 130K. I've done 1 alternator, 1 break line, 2 serpentine belts, and a front passenger axle. Haven't skipped a single service interval and it runs just as good as when it was new 15 years ago.

I use Amsoil's heavy duty metal protectant. Dries to the touch, doesn't attract dirt, and stays on unless you go after it with acetone.

A bunch of tips on here already, just thought I’d throw my hat in the ring, when drilling the bolts that snapped, get some reverse drill bits, I swear half the time, the bolts come loose during the drill out process.

Watching this video has me seriously nervous to do the transmission fluid on my 2008 4Runner. One stripped bolt spirals into a cluster 🦆 of sheared bolts 😓

My Lexus GS - same trans. I used an 1/4 impact on low power, worked out each bolt but I am not sure the Lexus (or 4 runner ) has the spacers. There are slightly different gaskets.

GM used this level system on a few tranmissions back in early 90,s but not many checked OEM instructions that it had to be running in park (which made it a 2 man job on a hoist) and consequently the transmissions got a bad name for reliability constantly running low oil levels caused aggressive clutch wear and shifting complaints

For anyone else facing the rusty bolts. I used a small cutting disc to cut off the tops of the rusty bolts first, then sprayed. None of the bolts that were cut broke on me. Two others did, where the tips weren't exposed. I tried heat on those, but no luck. Carefully drilled and tapped those out, was really no big deal, just drill centered, straight, and not too deep. I started with maybe a1/8" bit.

I had to replace the oilpan on my 04 sienna and the bolts broke so easily and it wasn't anywhere near as rust as that. Extract them and then chase the threads or heli coil them.

I under coat my 2020 Tundra every fall with fluid film. Warm it up on a hot plate to around 100 degrees and spray it with an air gun. No rust anywhere and I live in the rust belt. Highly recommend it.

As a toyota fan and toyota tech for many years. I have found that if you power wash and clean the underside of your vehicle once a year it prevents the rust build up from road grime and salt.

I just keep anything I care about out of the salt. In fact, yesterday I washed the truck anticipating snow today. But last night, buddy said, stop by for a bit. There wasn't any snow yet, but the county already spread sand mixed with salt and the pavement started to condensate. So this morning, I ran the truck through the wash again, then hosed out the wheel wells/running boards when I got home. It is now in the heated garage salt free and will sit there until the roads dry up. In the meantime, I'll drive our "disposable" vehicles if I need to go out.

If you can, always try to buy a truck from the south or a sunbelt state. Arizona probably is best. Then after passing inspection, just coat that thing every month or so. I had a 2007 tacoma (sold it, hated the clutch feel) and I would periodically go up underneath and coat the frame. Had a 1995 Isuzu trooper (better clutch feel by miles) and I sprayed it a lot also. The guy who bought it said you could still see factory marks on it from 1995. Fluid film is what will save these trucks. Get a bottle today. I don't care if your truck is in a recall or not, spray that underneath. It just takes a little rust to ruin the whole car.
