J-Madd Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Normally the nuts will strip out way before the studs will. I've stripped a dozen nuts on coolheads, due to the studs being a tad too short, but never damaged the stud. See if it's a stripped nut or stripped stud and go from there.

J-Madd Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Take the stud out of the cylinder and inspect the threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboBanshee420 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 .....stop using a ft/lb wrench on it! Those are only for 50+ft/lbs....use an inch/lb wrench and torque to 240inches, or use a degree wheel. And don't forget the assy lube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.J. Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Bolt or stud with nut? Title of the thread says bolt. Hopefully just a typo... Bolts will strip the alloy for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spurdy Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 My bad guys I ment the studs I feel like dum ass Only you can tell us what is wrong. You have it there in front of you for evaluation. If you are pulling the threads out of the cylinder then the threads need to be repaired. If it were me I would just repair all of them. Any machine ship can do it or you can do it yourself. Again, if it were me I would repair them all with "keenserts" as opposed to helicoils. Keenserts are a much stronger thread repair unit. If it isn't the threads in the cylinder then it must be the studs and those can just be replaced. Simple to diagnose and simple to repair. Just getter done!
