I couldn’t get any leverage with a breaker bar since the tp55 bolt is so shallow. The bit wouldn’t stay in no matter what I did. It was still a bear with an impactthose bolts were a bear to remove...even with a long breaker bar.
ended up stripping the last two bolts i need to remove on the driver's side.
even used pb blaster + heat...and it was still a gg.
i've been rolling around with just the passenger side running boards until i have time to extract the stripped ones. =[

Probably stripped because it's actually a TP55, and not a T55....I also got the stripped T55 and not able to remove to install the running boards. Any suggestions to removed the stripped T55 screw?
I was using TP55 only and still stripped.Probably stripped because it's actually a TP55, and not a T55....
Ah, I guess I was confused because you specifically said T55...I was using TP55 only and still stripped.
I’d recommend 0.5” driver if you can. I found the 3/8 to be flimsy for the torque neededI can confirm regular T55 causes stripping.
Ordered the TP55 3/8 and will try again tomorrow.
I also got very confused in my brain about which way to turnso think twice.
You should not be using a t55 on a tp55 bolt.When I used T55 with impact, it slipped. However, T55 is fine with a breaker bar and a torque wrench.
