supercrew231 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Recently purchased some cheap bar end mirrors. The type I purchased have the two expandable collars outside of the hex end screw and end cap(nut). So I went to install and couldn't get both collars to fit in flush so I just used the smaller collar. Problem is it wouldn't get tight enough to hold the mirror in place so I went to take them off and the nut and collar stuck in side while the hex end bolt just screwed out. Any ideas on how I can fix this or get those out of the handlebar? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarGuy7a Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Run the bolt back into the nut and then work the bolt around in a circular motion and it should loosen it from the expandable collar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 You might try giving the bolt a tap after you thread it in a turn or 2. That will pop out the wedge from the collar, if I'm picturing this right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
