All it takes is one wrong part and a stripped subframe bolt to wreck an otherwise decent week end

Hope you are all having as fun a weekend as me

Yes it's not really a massive issue just have to find a replacement bolt and nut, luckily enough there's access holes to get at the captivated nut which is a bonus

Im gonna have to cut a track rod end off to be able to fit a new en but again not a massive issue

Could've done without it but it is what if is

The nut is cage captivated rather than fixed so I will be able to remove the knackered nut and replace it, won't need to drill and tap and even if I could the Bush Centre is at most 10-11mm wide so I'm unable to drill and tap out to 14mm

The bolts are torque to yield bolts so they need to be the exact same type and material that was removed.

Helicoil "

I could but I dont think it's really worth the hassle doing a helicoil when all I need to do is hammer the caged nut off and replace it with a new nut and bolt
