You mean one of the two 15mm that hold the doggie between the rad support mount and the engine? If so.. turn the other way next time. I've never seen someone break one of those.

Better yet.. Stop now.

Right Lol. I got the cross over bolts off like butter then the next thing I know I break the damn dog bone bolt.

How the **** did you break a db bolt?

Go get a replacement from Home Depot

I think my dumb ass was turning it the wrong way

is a sign

Have a beer and continue on its a simple task and a rather simple replacement

Or don't, magic 8 ball says *You may be incapable*.

Trick for you. Hold your ratchet in front of you.. with your hand on the socket, turn it to ensure it's moving in the correct direction. Doesn't matter if you are upside down and backwards working on a car. If you do that. You should never be able to "reverse loosen" a bolt.
