So one of the two inserts that holds the rear latch component has stripped out. Its a shallow insert too. I assume others have had to fix this and wonder what works best.
options 1-tap hole for a bigger screw, probably an American thread & Loctite it 2-use a dremel tool and remove existing insert, fiberglass in a new one 3-cross thread in an American bolt along with JB Weld, cut head of and make it a thread stud 4-??? ideas, thanks |
