stripped threads, how to fix

[Rapid Robert]

one of the 2 threaded holes in the rear frame where the leaf spring bracket bolts onto is stripped. how do I fix this? its not open enough rearward of the hole to get a nut on a bolt

If space permits you could drill and tap the next size larger thread

When I relocated the springs in my '68 dart, I moved those rear hanger inward which required drilling one extra hole on each side. I just cut a hole in the bottom of the frame just large enough to slide a wrench with a nut taped to it and ran a bolt through the front. Hope that makes sense.

makes perfect sense!

Enough meat for a helicoil insert. They are a quality repair.
