Hi everyone,

I was tightening down my tow hook bolts today when my long one snapped. I’m not really sure what happened, as the rest of them torqued just fine at a higher weight too. Anyway, anyone have a part number for the long bolt? And any suggestions on how to remove the remaining bolt at the top? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

Could try a set of small vise grips and turn it bit by bit. If you could get it to come out the top might be easier. Just depends if the snapped piece inside has any edges that'll catch the threads.
