Good day everyone,
I was installing my Blox front engine mount and the bolts didnt line up correctly, so one of the control arm brace screw popped out. It seems like the threading in the hole is stripped.

Are there any fixes for the stripped threading? Not sure if its the bolt or the threading hole (Pretty sure its the hole), but does anyone know what size the bolt is?

So right now I only have the right and the middle bolt in. Does it affect handling stability that much without the brace?

Help!

Thanks in advance!

 

^ Ouch.

 

yeah... tap and dye kit...

 

Best bet will be to use a Heli-coil. Very simple to use and strong as hell. Just find out watch pitch the bolt is ( i.e. 8x 1.25 ) , goto Autozone and get a Heli-coil kit. You drill the damaged thread out and install the coil. Doesn't take long and great for any damaged threads.
