Talking Help needed dex410

Ok after finishing my build I noticed that the middle shaft from the rear would not turn properly
It's was bloody thread lock
Tried boiling water nope
So then heated it up on a flame this has worked.
But now I can not get the grub screw out tried drilling still no luck also tried to push the pin out no luck there either.
I need to get what's left of the grub screw out some how as I don't want it to be like this for racing.
Thanks leon

Doe's sound like abit of a mess if you've tryed drilling the grub screw there will be not alot left of the grub screw to get the allen driver in ?

I think the only thing you can do is keep drilling it till your able to get the pin out then replace the barrel , grub screw and pin with new ones

The Durango threadlock is VERY stong stuff you only need a very small amount on

I would also take all the other driveshafts out and make sure you have'nt done it to the others aswell

If you drill the grub screw with a drill that is less than 2.5mm diameter you shouldn't damage the thread, as long as you keep it centered. Then the bits that are left should come off with a blade or something like that.
