HELP! Broken driveshaft carrier bolt

Hey,

I'm after some urgent help! I am in the process of replacing my drive shaft carrier bushings and the bolt snapped.

Can anyone let me know what I need to do?

Which bolt? Snap a picture of it if you can.

Can you get a set of locking pliers on it? If not you may need to use an extraction bit to remove it. Make sure and put a little bit of PB blaster to help break it loose.

Yea I have no problem accessing the thread seen in the photo, but the head of the bolt is inside part of the chassis so not accesible.

Does anyone know how I can go about replacing it or anyone had a similar issue to this???

By the looks of things I will have to get the car trailered and a new bolt welded into the chassis
