[QUOTE="Atimm693, post: 1779631, member: 26138"] I don't mess with extractors too much. They seldom work well and if you break one off then you're really in trouble. I usually go straight to welding a nut on it, but that wouldn't help in your case. Assuming you can get a straight shot at it, I would continue drilling, probably up to 3/4 or 13/16, and then use a punch to curl out the remaining threads, as fence already advised. The LH drill bit advice is only banking on the chance that the bit may snag and back the fastener out. Otherwise it makes no difference. [/QUOTE]
