Well, I figured I'd give it a shot, I've done quite a few in the past with no problem, but always on machinery I didn't care about. So I drilled it, started trying to extract, looked like it was going to work.....and snap. So now the extractor is broken in there. So I pulled the fork, and will take it to a machine shop tomorow, hopefully they can salvage it.
