Hey, did you see with Verizon, if you have 4G, you can get the NHL package on your phone for free?
I haven't checked to see if they black out home games like they do with the normal package, but I had the outdoor game on my phone.

cross threaded gas tank bolt hole, but also used to support the steering stabilizer. If it was a bolt that didnt get removed 15 times a year, i'd go with a helicoil, but it was recommended to use a time sert due to repeated use. Guy want $75 to install

gay jettas, all sassy with their flare.

I like taking them apart, and figuring out the reason they are doing stuff. Our service manager is pretty good at selling remans though, so a few times a year at most, I'll have one apart.

I would go with an oversized bolt and rethread the hole. A heli coil should work fine, as long as you are properly torquing it and not hitting it with an impact gun

cant go with oversized bolt, unless I can find one with the same head size. its mounted into aluminum, and needs to withstand the lateral stress caused by the stabilizer. also should mention this is in aluminum, the holes are actually in the frame
