Olla, Ok I found this to work with the striped out CV bolts. Very easy too!! They are the 12 point hex pattern. I was able to use an allen bolt on most of these but only doing this being totally inexperienced. you know one of those trial by error things? ANYway What I found to work without using a cutoff wheel or a grinder, I just used those semi-circle washer/spacers that are under the bolts. Use the famous WD-40 and soak them over night. Just drench em. Use a pair of good and not too small Parrot nose plyers (any hardware sore has them). Then if you can get one of the two bolts off in the washer semi-cirlce then pry the washer with a flat head screwdriver pivoting on the bolt that is still torqued in. This should break it loose. Then get the proper hardware when reinstalling. You have to figure out which bolt to take off first for the counter clockwise rotation of the washer thing to loosen the bolt. It takes a little bit to see what I am talking about but this works very well. Have fun Bro Oh yeah if you can find something to jar it with like a hammer and an exstension or something that will help break the bolt loose too.
