Started to build the front of the car back up and in the process I have stripped a few threads. One being the top caliper bolt on the drivers side and the others are 2 of the front anti roll bar bolts into the subframe. I know the hub is a known one for stripped threads and I'm guessing the alloy subframe is just the same.
I have some tap and dies there which I've used on basic jobs but I've never used helicoils. Is it simply drill out to a lager hole, tap it for the larger helicoil and screw it in?
Also, does anyone have any idea what size of items I need to buy? I think they are both m12 but tbh I didn't really look.
As usual all help very welcome
