Metric tap and die set?
Does anyone have a metric tap and die set I could borrow? I need to fix a slightly mangled suspension shock mount.
All my cars have drum brakes and are sub 200 hp, what am I doing with my life?

I don't have a set, but I have two sizes.
One @ M12 - 1.25, and the other M4 - 1.25.
Are you just dressing the threads, or are you actually re-tapping? I also have Helicoil inserts for the M12.

If there is a fine patina of rust on it, then yep, probably mine.

I suppose dressing, they aren't ruined, just a little mangled. I'm gonna just replace the bolt, but I want to clean up the threads on the car body.zaxrex wrote:Are you just dressing the threads, or are you actually re-tapping?
