Hi All-
As I was taking the doors off I noticed one of the bolts was very hard to back out, went slowly to avoid snapping it off and once out notice the threaded plate in the door is stripped, previous owner may have cross threaded when installing, maybe using an impact to get it to seat.
Anyway does anyone have any experience with this or have any suggestions? Can this plate be easily changed out for a new one? Thread repair heli-coil, insert etc seems like there's not enough room.
Maybe the vendors have come across this? Dave S, Toby, Rob?
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
For those asking why the heck I would take the doors off in the first place... I needed to treat the roof box.
