HELP ASAP trailing arm problem
Not sure of your specific situation, but if you drilled out a bolt, usually you'd tap the threads. Get a tap and die set with some cutting fluid. You can probably find a cheap set for around $20 $30.

which bolt was it?
What mark said will work but you will need to brake off the welded nut
Or you can try re taping it, if you have access to a kit. i would try this route first. Make sure you pick up some anti seize for the bolts when re-installling everything. It will make it soo much easier in the future.

Wait you were installing them and it broke due to you trying to tighten it? If that's the case you most likely cross threaded the welded nut... You're going to have to get that re threaded.
The only bolt he needed to touch was the one for the coilover so if he got that drilled out (but why would you need to drill even that?) then it's just a nut and a new bolt that he needs.
