I have an h22 engine in my accord but theres a problem. The idiots at bits racing bolted up the tryanny wrong and im paying for it big-time those jerks. But uhhhh well the bolts that go throught the mount going downwards into the tranny are stripped there are messed up threads the two bolts on the outside. The only thing i have holding it up is 1 stud go figure.\

I need your help guys ive asked around and someone told me that i can use kingsrts. Ive heard what they are you can put them into the tryanny and rethread them which is what i have to do. But theres one problem I dont know where to get them can someone tell me where?

 

i cant really tell from your post what part is actually stripped. if its your transmission, you can try re-tapping it or use a helicoil.

if its the actual stud, just re-thread it w/ a die set....easy stuff..

 

you know the two bolts that go into the tranny like regular bolts and whats a helicoil?

 

Similar thing happened to me, except it was on the exhaust manifold, I was trying to get a bolt loose and it broke in half inside the hole. Now there is no bolt there and it doesn't tighten the header down properly, what's the best way to fix it?

 

you probably have to melt it out and rethread and get the same size bolt in there.

 

http://www.hillcliff-tools.com/helicoil.html that is a link that explains and shows what a helicoil is/does. they can be picked up at most auto parts stores and/or hardware stores.

i use the helicoil as a last resort if i cant re-tap or re-thread the hole/bolt.

for a broken off manifold stud, the easiest thing to do is to use an e-z-out. im sure you have seen bob vila on sears commercials advertising the e-z-outs. it looks similar to a drill bit but it "bites" into whatever you are trying to back out. they are really neat and very, very handy. those can be picked up at any place that stocks handtools, etc.

 

what size bolt goes into the tranny i need to know now
