anybody know of a place that carries helicoils localy? i think i may have stripped out the lower subframe bolt on my car… and well i need something that is a Metric 12 X1.25 or any M 12 bolt will be fine if i have to just get new bolts
carquest i think has them
or give hank a call
Usually motorcycle/ATV places have them.
I found some @ carquest in hamburg a while ago… actually, let me check my house later… got a whole package you can have if it’s the correct size (was going to use them when I blew my sparkplug out of the head, before using solid inserts)
12x1.5 is as fine as I can go. let me know if that is good and I will explian what I can get.
I helicoiled the valve cover bolts on my noobtastic automobile… borrowed the ish from JanCen. If you have the tool, I think you can pick up the coils themselves at Napa. It sounds like this is the case as Skrapper said he could get them

Check Northstate supply on military… they’ve got All sorts of hardware

How soon you need it? I think I needed one so I bought the kit a few years ago and probably have some extra laying around.
I bought mine from napa when I had to redo a thread on my block. It was like 6 or 7 bucks and came with the proper drill bit, the instalation tool and like 5 or 6 helicoils.
