[6pack] trailing arm studs

[Bob Danielson]

Phil,
They're 5/16-24. I didn't use Heli-coil due to the need for their special
drill. I went to McMaster Carr and got Keen-Serts, though McMaster doesn't
use their trade name. Do a search on "key locking threaded inserts" and
you'll get to them. No special drill needed, simple to install and they
really lock in place. You can see the TA stud that I did here:

What is the threading of the holes tapped in the trailing arm to secure the
hub? I can't recall if it's 1/4-20 or 1/4-28. I want to put in Heli-coils,
but I don't want to get the wrong bits.

TIA,
