REPLACE THE BOLTS!!!!!!! once torqued they are no longer as strong as new... replace them... people will say "oh i reuse them i re use them" i have done about 5 hubs now where people have had the bolts snap off in the hub ... my own included... spend the $5 on new bolts so you do not have to go throught his crap.. mine was so bad i had to hit my my buddy that is a master machinist for help cause it was out of my league and he gave me hand making a new sleeve for it after i got it milled out
ground it out to get the piece out

then use the lathe to resleave it
