    basically one of the top studs has a fucked thread, was thinking just re-tap to a 10mm shouldn't be an issue, any ideas and then just use a bolt?

    Your plan seems good to me, it's either that or Helicoil it!

    Yea I just replaced all mine with standard bolts so the thread is standard 8x1.5 upping to 10mm wouldnt be an issue.
