Re: Stripped banjo bolt…helicoil?

really?! A helicoil is essentially a coil of wire in the right thread pitch that jambs into an oversized hole when you thread the original fastener in.
Each time you tighten it is gets bigger & looser.

A threaded insert may give you longer lasting, tougher threads than an aluminum part on it's own, but a helicoil is not a threaded insert.
