brembo bolt holes cross threaded


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

hey guys in need of some advice, basically i was removing my front calipers to repaint them an who ever fitted them has cross threaded the bolts inside an completley stripped the threads, what are my options if i can get them re threaded or is it just a case of new ones?

If there's enough meat around the hole you could drill them out and take them up a size. or if there isny enough meat on it to get away with that you could use a heli coil kit to allow you to reuse the oem bolts
