Hello all-
Just finishing up a cooling fan upgrade and decided to do poly sway bar bushings while I was in there. All went pretty well until (literally) the last bolt was being tightened at the end of the job (figures ). One of the bolts on the LH sway bar bushing mount stripped out. Took my time and was careful to not cross thread, but when it came time to torque it, it just spun. Guessing a couple of the threads were just waiting to blow out and my meddling sent them over the edge. Was planning to buy a Helicoil kit (M10 x 1.5) to repair but thought I’d put it out there to see if anyone had done that with one of these welded nuts before on the sway bar. Didn’t want to go forward if there might be a reason not to repair it this way. Thanks!
