Hi,
While changing belts on my Disco 200tdi I managed to snap off one of the bolts on the power steering pump adjuster plate. The bolt is 10mm I think.
Any Idea where I can get a new bolt from?
And how the hell can I remove the old bolt? Drill it out?

Thanks in advance.:)
 
bolts are sized by diameter of thread not head ,it will be 8mm bolt with 10mm flange head ,if part of thread is sticking proud you can weld a washer to it then a nut to the washer ,the heat also helps free it , failing that you drill out and use an easy out /stud extractor drilling centrally is the key, if you have to drill all the stud out you can then drill oversize and helicoil it back to size

Ok, thanks. The other bolts are still holding the drive belt tight but probably not for much longer.
