Howdy Guys,
I was doing a shake down inspection after replacing the ball joints on my BroncoII and found the bottom 3 bolts wouldn't take torque on my D35. These 3 bolts hold on my skid plate I made for the diff, which is also supported by an arm that connects up on the top of the radious arm.
What is my appropriate fix here?
Do I have enough meat in the aluminum case to drill out and tap a 7/16 course thread bolt?
Should I attempt to heli-coil to the origonal bolt size?
does the skid have to go? It is supported in the back and the top not just the bottom bolts...
Thanks for all the help.........
