50 fl --- 5th trans. mounting bolt--stripped
that 50 FL i have, the 5 th tranny mounting bolt , the bolt not one of the 4 studs, the hole in the case is quite stripped out,----i am, asumming that the threaded insert was cast into the case, i see the 2 pins prolly to help secure it-- i could maybe heli-coil it, but i don't really like heli-coils-- i have bought some,threaded steel inserts but , there's not enuff stock left on the case insert itself--to sensibly try drilling and tapping for these--( outside, thread size is 9/16 x12 )---anyone else ever deal with this------- , also tranny is case is not empty, i really don't wanna strip it down right now-- thanks ---tony s
