3 tries and boy
Not only were the studs stripping, last try I heard two loud pops right over 10 lbs torque
Looks like case threads on clutch side are both stripped or worn. I think the pop was them pulling out
Im sooo bummed

That sucks. With studs, it seems sometimes you get lucky. Other times, not so  |

I’ve used HeliCoils for thread repair in aluminum previously. Actually held up better than the factory aluminum thread. Any experience in a case? How do they hold up, just curious for future reference just in case. |

Thanks for the thoughts, fellas. Im waiting on new studs. I havent decided if i should helicoil a m7 or tap case to fit m8 studs. Another friend mentioned time-sert. Do i tap all 4 to match? Leave the fly side case as is? For she sits covered up in a dark corner.

Time serts are supposedly stronger. But helicoil is what most seem to go for.
