So, the problem... The time-sert drill bit just goes right in the hole, doesn't even hit the sides.
Under further investigation it seem that this has been repaired before. Maybe a helicoil or drilled out for a larger bolt. You can see from this picture it was definitely drilled out and tapped.
So, I am left with really only one type of fix. The old remove the back of the bracket and weld on a nut fix.
Here is a pic of the back of the bracket. I will have to remove the dome section that the bolt currently screws into.
The red shows what I'm going to cut out. The green shows where I will weld a bolt onto the bracket.
Then I will weld back in the red removed section.
If possible when I remove everything I may fill the hole in the bracket with weld. Then line up the transmission mount and drill a new 12mm hole so I can perfectly line up the nut that will be welded on.
Stay tuned, I just ordered the nuts, bolts, and washers from Bellmetric and new motor
and transmission mounts, Motor Mount Large Washer, Motor Mount Bolts from Pelican Parts. So, I may not be able to actually do welding/drilling for another week. I may cut out he bracket section this weekend...
Thanks for everyone's help,
Rodney
