    Thanks guys. Going to take the bolt down now to see what size and hopefully it isn't an odd ball size. If so @Yetimetchkangmi ill call them to see if they have one. If not order it up ASAP on Amazon. Just put the truck up on jack stands

    Was that the actual thread pitch? I have no fing idea how I knew that if I was right lol.

    Irwin makes nice taps too. The snap-on tap set is (or used to be at least) re-branded Irwin taps.

    Either way hope it works!

    If I could find my dads tap set I could be done by now..
    Looks like just 2-3 threads towards the beginning.
    It's a 12mm bolt with a 1.25 thread pitch

    I thread the tap in by hand about 2 turns and then it gets hard to turn.. It isn't cross threading though and the bolt still threads right in (all from the outside towards the inside).. Maybe the threads just aren't that deep in the spindle? Haven't tried to go any further in case it damages it.

    enough to go over stuff
    If your sure its the right tap then go for it. Lots of wd40 or cutting oil. twist it in slowly. and back it out and go a little harder over and over again.

    Glad you got it fixed!

    Tapping is definitely a skill to know how much pressure it takes vs when itll just break. Especially when doing harder metals
