I need to remove one expansion bolt from the Transmission Mount, since I want to replace that mount. In the car 2003 Chevy Cavalier, the Transmission Mount is attached to the subframe with 3-4 usual bolts and one expansion bolt, which is located at the center of the mount. No films about that process in details, but I saw one film where the author broke that expansion bolt on Chevy Transmission Mount. Please could you tell if the procedure of the removal of the expansion bolt on a car would be the same, as in this film? Do I also need those special tools to remove it? I have a Shop Manual for that car, and on the replacement of the Transmission Mount they don't say about any special tools, just say: Remove the Expansion Bolt, then remove other bolts. I would appreciate any opinion on this matter. Thank you for the great film.

Sorry, I’m not familiar with expansion bolts in automotive applications, but I’d guess this process would further damage the car. You might check out the South Main Auto channel. He has lots of good videos and I’d guess one covering what you need.

@@westernadventureinstructio9227 Thank you very much for the attention to my question. During my research on this question I found out that the Expansion Bolt on Chevy Transmission Mount is a type, which is cold Pipe Bolt. From Ebay they wrote me that no special tools needed, just a regular wrench. They also advised to relieve the stress from the Transmission before dealing w/that Bolt, then it is kind of easier to remove it. If you look at that bolt you see a head of the seemingly usual bolt, like for 10 mm socket, not a nut, which you can remove. But it is sitting inside of the black plastic well. The film, which points on the problem can be found if to type on YT "2003 chevy cavalier engine transmission mount". It is a film of the author Efurd Garage, he explains the problem, and you can briefly see that bolt. It is the only film on YT which addresses the problem. The author corrected the broken bolt w/welding, I don't do welding and won't be able to correct it that way. I feel that the Chevy is the only car w/that type of attachment of the Transmission Mount. I find it is very and very rare thing: Expansion bolts in automotive applications. Thank you again for your concerns and advise w/South Main Auto channel. I'll check, and hope to get another piece of some info on this question. The project seems to be an interesting indeed.

I've used these anchor bolts recently and have to say I don't like them. A few don't tighten and very difficult to remove
@westernadventureinstructio92279 ай бұрын
What application are you using them in? The hardness of the base material and brand of the anchor make a lot of difference. If wedge bolts won’t tighten down, sleeve bolts, or adhesive anchors may be a better option.

You are awesome. I had a bolt that didn't go well so I needed it removed. Came to YT to see if a solution existed and found this video. Using the logic presented I was able to create a solution with the tools I had on-hand. It wasn't pretty but I was able to get the bolts out and continue with the project. Thank you so much. Your tool would have made life easier but I needed to get the job done same-day so I made it happen.

In the event that the cone broke free from the bolt shaft, what of tapping the wedge free of the sleeve with a punch and then fishing the sleeve and then the cone out with a hook or magnet?
@westernadventureinstructio92272 жыл бұрын
Hi Jim, if the cone breaks off, it's tough to reuse the hole. if it pulled out a ways before breaking, that method would work well. It's more likely that it will break when first starting to pull in which case you likely won't have room to tap the wedge out to fish the clip. You can drill through these with the rebar rated masonry bits available from Hilti/Milwaukee (and probably others). this does use a lot of battery and goes through bits quickly. I try to be careful not to break them, and if they do break, usually patch the hole and drill a new one.

Great video 👍 very helpful. Do you know the TPI for the 5/16 portion of the draw stud? Also, where do you get that draw stud?
@westernadventureinstructio92272 жыл бұрын
The 5/16 section (and cone for 3/8" 5-piece bolts) is 18tpi. I make the draw studs using a drill to spin the tip of a 3/8"x16 double ended manifold stud against an angle grinder, and then use a 5/16 x 18 die to cut threads. its helpful to also grind flats on opposite sides of the stud so you can use an adjustable wrench on to screw the stud on/off couplers or into the bolt sleeve. the studs are available on McMaster www.mcmaster.com/90281A644/ or amazon www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CZ3JWY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
