I screwed up my front passenger steering knuckle when putting it back together after installing my new COs. The thread is stripped on the inside and won't accept any bolts. Looking for new or used, OEM or aftermarket. My truck is OOC until I can get my hands on one, and I don't have the $300 for a new one.

 

Dude just tap the stripped threads! Way cheaper than buying a new used spindle!

 

I think they may have talked about that at the shop? I overheard them talking about doing something but they said it probably woultdn't work. Is that something I can do or do I need to take it somewhere? I've already had it towed home. I ordered some bolts just to make sure.

 

I just watched a short video. Can I rethread it the same size or do I have to go up a size in thread?

 

I don't know how bad you stripped it but I would try to fix it in original size first and go from there. Good luck!

 

Thanks man! Good lookin out!
