Sveach756, breaking taps and extractors or any of that ultra hard metal really sucks. I suppose you had to go up a size for the holes you had to drill out and tap. What are your thoughts on helicoil or timesert in that application?

Time-sert would also work fine but you still have to get thru whatever you broke off in there.
BTW, I can't speak to how things would go under the car with a drill. I always have the part on the mill when doing a job like this.
