you can try vise grips and a hammer just tighten the vise grips as much as you can and see if that works. or you can grind two flat spots on each side of the bolt and get a wrench end to fit it if you can.

or just go with the easy way like eage said lol. the other two methods ive done when no stores were open

Maybe use some penetrating oil too. You'll need all the tricks you can pull out of your sleeves.

Do you have a bolt gun? If not, good luck getting them out...

The Sears Craftsman Bolt Outs are your best bet, given those bolts are torqued at 80 ft/lbs.

thanks everyone and noo i dont have a bolt gun or anything the fix ended up being as simple as changing from a 12 point socket to a 6 point one even on the worst one it got the job done but thanks everyone should have the new tranny6 in sometime this week
