so you got the tools and it still arent able to fix it? what issue are you running into now, got any pics, us guys love to look at pics? cause you should be able to just drill out the bolt and retap it and your good to go, that is unless you break the drill bit then your doing more work. Dont give up on it, thats parts of jeeps, sometimes you spend a whole day dinking with a bolt and give up. then you drink a few beers (root beer that is) think it over, talk over a few ideas on here and then take a new wack at it the next day. now granted that is difficult to do when its your DD, but that keeps you from getting so mad at it you want to sell it. most guys on here are so busy wrenching on their own jeeps that they never get a chance to help someone else personally, however if you bring it to the meetings, after the meeting you can usually talk a few guys to come out and take a look at it and give you hands on advice.
IF all else fails, Johns 4X4 in Billings is pretty reasonable, Geoff w/ ozarks offroad fab is great, but takes his time to do a good job. Many good mechanics work at home too, thats always cheaper than a shop which is always a good thing, that and they usually care more when your their personal customer.
Hope this helps
Ryan
