SC20 beam retention bolt-holes stripped
Posted: June 6th, 2022, 7:30 pm
I am refurbishing a '86 SC20 and realized one of the beam retention bolt holes in the hull is stripped. Is this a common problem? If so, is there a simple solution? Unsure if the threads in the hulls are aluminum, epoxy or other material. I see my options as drill/tap a larger bolt thread, fill hole with epoxy and re-drill/tap, or possibly use heli-coils...Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
