The weld trick won't work on those. Oh yes they will...you just gotta feed the mig wire throught the middle of the nut onto the broken stud...Thats mainly what I fix is studs that are broken as far as 1/4 inch into the head. I can still make contact with it and I can always get it out. Re: Check those exhaust manifold studs!!! [Re: torquemonster] #556068 01/25/05 05:55 AM Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 1,484 Grand Jct. Colorado highmtndesert Body Damage is Cool And this is called what. Now the question is will a heli-coil fix this or do I pull the head off and try something else? Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them. Re: Check those exhaust manifold studs!!!

It uses a larger hole and thread for the insert install. Keen-Serts can also be purchased solid, without a threaded thru hole so that you can drill and tap your own for a special size or offset location etc. 1990 Montero 2dr 3.0 Auto Lsd Front & Rear Page 2 of 2 1 2 Moderated by  4x4Wire, Macka, Mudraider, off-roader, PHIL_, rxinhed  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
