Hey guys, today when I was tightening on my new intercooler, I tightened it on too much and the stud for the top bracket just snapped in half. Has this ever happened to anyone and can you help me fix this? Can I just drill that stud out and put a new one in?

Thanks

 

Fack!

Maybe an easy out or weld something to the broken stud to twist it out. OR...the old drill and tap trick

 

I did the same thing on mine haha i kinda freaked ,, temp. fix was a machine screw on both sides of the stud they are currently still there , this winter i will be cutting it off and having a new one welded in place ,, GL

 

can you explain that more? machine screw on both sides?

 

If you Drill small holes or hole right next to or on top of the stud depending on the size of the intercooler mount you can use a machine screw and a washer as a temp. fix
