    Welp, oiling for days, heat and welding a nut to it did nothing. Snapped them both off with out even trying. Guess now I am going to be drilling and tapping. I am pretty good with a drill and tap, but didn't want to have to do that. Such is life I guess.

    No big deal, started drilling the old ones out last night. One step away from tap size, will be doing that tonight or tomorrow.

    ok cool, dip the drill tip in a little oil so it doesn't dull or grab, it will also cut better.

    Be careful what kind of oil you use, though... Sometimes it lubricates and makes the drill bit stop cutting when you use good stuff.
