and yes you tryed (still appreciate that btw), but dont try to take credit for your dads work matt. He is the one who did the helicoil
Only reason i called you is because you had the tools, i didnt.
Oh and tell you dad i said thanks again, it still holding up great
Now, i have a reason for taking credit for matt/matts dads work.
But why did he try to take credit for his dads work in that last post?

i love when people take credit for work they didn't do. Cb's too, right?
If you can't get it with heat and oil like everyone has suggested, the helicoil is an easy fix. Did that trick on a front diff cover when the head of a bolt snapped off while trying to torque the bolt down. Didn't think it would snap with less then 35 ft/lbs. (forget what the fsm recommended, but i know it was less than 35. Helicoiled it, and in less then 5 minutes we wwere installing the diff back into the 4runner.
