Did you heat it before trying to remove it? Locktite might be your problem.

It was broke prior to removing it. I found out it happens alot.

I have removed several of these by hitting the remaining bolt with a hammer and punch several times to loosen the threads and then spin out whats left with a pick. This probably wouldn't work if you've already drilled a hole and used a screw extractor.

I got it out today .....but....i had to use a cutting torch, and melt out the pin until it got past the bolt.
