I've got a serious problem. I am unable to bolt my subframe back on, I have one bolt I cannot screw in because the hole got stripped. Not much was stripped but I have no idea how to rethread this. Does anyone know of a shop that can help me rethread this hole? they would have to come to me, does not have to be a shop even someone with experience doing this stuff is enough, I just need to get that bolt back on!

 

buy a 12x1.25 tap

 

i rented one from autozone...but its too small? I will post pics tomorrow morning when i get home from work

that's what I rented from autozone....the M12x.125 jsut slips through
12x.1.75 seems to "fit"... pics tomorrow

 

looks like it might be a M14x1.50 and not a M12x.125

frame repair (96-00 repair manual)
page 20-120

(inner diam)17(0.67) Rear Beam Point

Can someone confirm this?
