Re: Stripped turbo bolts

There are some bolt rethreading kits out there, but you're going to have to retap the holes as well. It would be like 10x easier to just get new bolts and retap the holes. Either way, it's not going to be pretty. My lower control arm bolt that attaches by the rocker panel broke inside the hole from rust, tried retapping.. the fuckin tap broke inside.. so we welded a threaded stud onto the tap and everything else in the hole. I'm going to be driving down the road one day and BAM!
