Hi All,

For all of those who helped with ideas thanks.

What I eventually did was:

Cut the primary pipe of the extractors (did not really want to do this as I don't like destroying things unnecessarily) and then use an Irwin twist socket on an impact wrench to remove the offending bolt.

The extractors were to be replaced anyway but this meant I had to replace this one myself rather than take it into the exhaust shop.

Once again thanks to all.

Cheers
Ross

Also meant to say that I never did find one of the "adjustable ring spanners" but did try the speed wrench.

All the speed wrench did was strip it's own teeth and did not move the bolt at all.

Cheers
Ross

Hi Ross.
I've asked about as well. Nobody seems to be able to find one either.
They all agree it would a handy tool to have if you don't have any alternative.
Glad to hear it worked out.
