Steve is right, it is the only way to go. Here at the Snowshoe Mountain Bike Center we have done more of those jobs than I can count and have had customers come back a year or two later and tell us the job is holding up great. You can buy a whole kit with the tape, die and about ten helicoils. In the directions I believe it calls for red locktite, we used JB weld thinking the helicoil will never come out and it worked well. In the end I believe you will have stronger threads that OEM as you now have a steel insert that will be a lot harder to strip. Mark Poore Slatyfork, WV
