Kraton Kraton stripped screws

[jaro's rc yt]

Hey, I stripped the screw that holds the front numper into the chassis, and was wondering if anybody has had experiences on kraton screws being REALLY tight? and if anyone has stripped them, im wondering if anyone has a method to take it out because it is so far in the bumper i cant use my screw removal kit

Drill it out with small bit

I heard you can put a piece of thin rubber on your screwdriver and try that if it’s not completely rounded.

Um that's gonna ruin the threads...

Not if it’s smaller than the threads. Then retap the hole.

I don't see how a drill bit will get a screw out

It will remove the bulk of it. The rest will get removed by the tap.

Oh, I don't know what the hell a tap is

That’s exactly what I used, it works after I did rebuild and all upgrades I stripped every screw damn factory locktite overkill

Yeah arrma screws can easily get stripped, replace them with high quality screws.
