I have some of the crews at home. I want a lot for them. FREE. Be back home next week. Out with the GMC now. So that we can compile another list of things that I have to do to it. RIGHT? To repair the hole. How about filling the hole with something like JB weld. Let it harden. Then drill a fresh hole that's a little under size. So the screw can cut new threads. I've used an extra screw to make into a tap of sort. Not much load on this screws. Bob Dunahugh Highly modified 78 Royale

Get hold of Jim Bounds at Coop.
Make it brief and ask him, he will tell you how to do it.

I looked at a coach for sale Friday which was missing some screws and had some large hex cap screws in place of many others. Seller said they were HeliCoiled <tm>.
