centre bearing

[commy vk]

Have just replaced the centre bearing on the shaft and when I reinstalled it one of the hook up bolts is stripped.So now what do I do?I have removed the carpet hoping to find the welded on nut but can't see it.Where is it and how do I get to it?Thanks in advance to the Gurus.

A quick and dirty solution would be to drill and tap for a slightly larger bolt

Yeah had to drill and re-tap one in my old VH. It worked.

All I have to say is

heli-coil

else you can mig up the inside of the nut drill it and re tap the thread again.

All of the above are good ideas, whatever you do dont take the 'she'll be right' approach and stick it in with a whole heap of loctite.
