I've posted this before but it bears repeating:

From what I've seen the easiest and fastest way to non-destructively remove a freewheel with stripped or damaged notches is to use a #8 easy-out tool. This was how Schwinn dealers were taught to do it back in the '60s and '70s. You can get the tool here: Irwin 52408 #8 Easy Out Screw Extractor



I never let the freewheel win.
