Well, I picked up a heli coil kit for it today but I'm going to try and tap it first. I got my vacum outside and some q tips.. FML if this fails..

if the threads are gone the tap isn't gonna do poop. There just isnt enough material.

Lucky for you... The hole is already there. So you have a pilot hole for your drill.

It's a piece of pie. You can do it!

Me and mike tried the tap and failed... but I might try brads method and get a longer bolt. I already bought the heli coil kit but really don't want to drill if it can be avoided.

I would try a longer bolt. And try this new threadlocker. Its like jb weld but its for stripped out holes.
