Stripped frt swaybar mounting hole

Featured Replies

So while under the Z this weekend I realized one of the front swaybar mounting holes is stripped... Since the threads are inside the front frame rail does anyone have any advice how I am going to get in there and fix it???

Any and all advice will be appreciated greatly... Thanks all,

Drill upward all the way through the top of the frame rail and use longer bolts, flat, (and lock) washers and a nut on each. People do this all the time when using larger diameter swaybars to get a stronger mount. Just be careful that you don't drill into anything else that may be mounted to the top of the frame rail.
