you dont even need to use those screws , once they are moved dont even use them again. They are just to keep the rotor on during the assembly line

I find myself removing screws from threaded AV racks. I’ll start by making a small hole then upsizing the bit to something a bit larger. Once I get a good enough bite on the screw I reverse it and unscrew it out. If that doesn’t work I’ll just hog it out until I can pop the screw out.

Use regular drill bit for part 1, then use a left hand drill bit for part 2. Way easier!

This comment shouldn’t have made me laugh the way I did lmao. But bro same that was me yesterday

This definitely works. I just completed the rear brakes on my accord

Thanks brother

Just get a drill that is a little smaller than the head of the screw. The ones on a kia soul wasn't hardened so the drill cut through like hot butter. If they was important screws they would have been through a harding process

Took me about 15mins per side when doing this. Mostly because I was being careful

What type of screw driver is that? Is that the high power screw? 🤔

Omg best $25 I've spent on a 21 piece titanium bit set I got my rotor off yaaaay

For any metal drill bits what do you recommend

Stupid Honda!!! Every damn Acura and Honda I buy and replace the brakes even using the Jis #3 screwdriver, those pesky rotor screw are always stripping!!! No matter the impact, the proper tools, damn those engineers!!! Buying a dremel cutter just to remove the bastards!

Why do people tighten those to 1000nm when they only need 9nm max. just wrist clicking torque is enough.

I gotta try this tomorrow… both screws on my 02 accord are rusted shut. Tried using an impact screwdriver.. all 3 Phillips bits it came with broke off at the tip 😡 So when using the bigger drill bit do you drill it in reverse?? Or how do you get it to unscrew in the end??

@AcuraAdvice

No you dont need to reverse it, just keep drilling and it will come out. The screw head will detach and slide over your bit. You dont need to remove the threads since these screws aren't needed so you simply don't reinstall them.

My bit broke off inside the hole and non of my bits are able to drill out the other bit now… what can I use 😢

If it doesn’t come out by the end just hit it with a rubber mallet from the back and it should come lose.

Where did you get the extractor set from

@AcuraAdvice

Жыл бұрын

Its not an extractor set, just titanium drill bits. The set I used is linked in the description.

You stress the use of titanium (coated) bits, is that because you might break bits in this process and you want to use cheap ones? Cobalt bits are better for this purpose. But are more expensive.

@AcuraAdvice

I've just found that titanium bits are the cheapest ones that work everytime for me. I was mainly trying to get the point across to use a metal bit that is a harder material than the material of the screw.

I WISH.

Everyone has such a tough time removing these... I need to make a video of how I handle them. Non ratcheting breaker bar with a hammer. Light torque, hard impacts, never more than a 30 second process. They usually come out and are re-usable. Once in a while they sheer, which isn't a problem. But they never round off.

@investmince159 Just a braker bar. I'm specifically pointing out "non ratcheting" because many people use long handled ratchets interchangeably with braker bars, but clearly, you would not want to hammer on a ratchet head.

I drilled one out, then said "screw it". got a good #3 phillips impact screw driver and a good hammer from amazon. It showed up next day. That was a useless idea... Back to drilling.... What type of oil are we using? WD?

Lol i find about 1 out of every 4 or 5 i do will actually come out with an impact screw driver, so I end up drilling most of them. The "proper" way to get them out is with a compressed air impact. Yeah I just used WD40
