Sure thats not 105 INCH lbs???? Read about that all the time.

Did it break flush? If youre not comfortable drilling/tapping the bolt out take it to a shop and have them do it.

if you can take the pan off and get on the bolt with some vice grips that could work as well.

Yikes, yeah, that's 105 inch-pounds. (8.75 foot-pounds). Ouch! Something like this should get it out:

google EZ Out or easy out...not sure which.

Basically you drill a hole in the fastener end, and then this thing screws into that hole, but it is a cross threaded screw. Keep screwing in, and the bolt turns the right way to come out.

If it busted before you reached 8lbs-ft or torque it most likely was crossthreaded,prepare for the worst and figure in the cost of drilling it out to the next size and adding a helicoil or a new trans.

If you manage to get it out...make sure you get a new pan...because if you actually torqued that bolt to 105 ft lb, that pan is fubar.
