o2 housing to downpipe bolt question
I stripped both of my bolts that goes on downpipe(with spring)
I'm going to order new bolts from here and I was wondering if theres any way to screw in bolts easier.
I tried to fit in almost 3 hours. Took off plastic trays, downpipe, etc. It just wont fit back in. I'm hoping I didnt strip the o2 housing so i can fit the new bolts back in.
If I did strip the o2 housing, is it possible to put the bolt back in easy?
I saw DIY on this but dont know what I was reading.
If i cant screw in, I think I'm going to take it to near mufflershop to fit it in.
thank you

inspect the threads on the bolts to see if they are warped/warn. You could go with a rethreading tool if its your o2 housing threads, but I would just replace the o2 housing. I hear the ebay ones are really good and cheap.
