Kohler K Series Bearing Plate Stripped Bolt Holes

Recommended Posts

TractorEd

I have some stripped bolt holes used to mount the blower housing to the bearing plate.  Has anyone used something like a heli-coil or nut-sert/ thread-sert to “fix” them?

 

Any other creative fixes for this?

 

Thanks, Ed.

2nd on the helicopter coil. Drilling & tapping to 5/16 might be another option.  Did that a few times on the bottom right one.

That’s the one that’s completely stripped out on this k341.

Quick, easy and inexpensive, that is the way I would do it.
