Hhhhhheeeellllppppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!

i need help why do i always do this

been stripping the rear suspension out on the 850 that a mate is using
and have sheared a nut off the rear spring retainer bolt
anyone got any knocking about or know where i can get some today or tomorrow ?

I did the same thing changing the rear suspension on mine. Only answer was to punch out the old bolt and replace it with a new one then either grip it with a spanner to tighten it up or weld it to the spring retaining plate.

have had that thought about grinding the old head off

Are we talking about the bolt that goes through the cup-type thing at the bottom of the spring?

Happens a lot by all accounts -
Solution?...

grind it baby!

I,m assuming you mean this bit
