I have completed work on my front end and in the process of replacing my rear shocks. Of course the rear upper bolts broke off. This newsgroup had great advice regarding a repair by drilling thru the rear floor and installing nuts and bolts.(there was a nice link to a homepage) Before I try this I would like to know if anyone has had any luck with a tap.I have drilled out the bolts and the stock bolts are now a bit to small. The bit was 5/16ths. Is a Helicoil strong enought to use ?
