Help, stripped front diff drain plug

will try this next weekend

 

Finally remembered what they were:

I have used a tool similar to this one in situations like these......usually before its stripped but it works well with screw extractors. The most common application though is for the screw that holds on brake rotors

The manual impact driver, not the cordless impact

 

well after a week of spraying pb blaster on my drain bolt and then today drove it for 20 minutes to warm it up, then hit it with a map gas torch for a while, I finally got the damn drain bolt out!!!!

 

i always liked a happy ending...well done

 

Went to change my diffs, i get to the front and its already stripped from previous owner, soaked in some PB, then got a big chisel made a notch at the top, then put a pair of vice grips on the chisel and smacked the sob counter clockwise with a few hardy blows, it broke free took me a whole 5 mins, overnight drain plug shipping on Amazon.
