240Z Stub Axle Thread Repair

[Wavey Davey]

I need to get the threads repaired on both of my stub axles following damage after removing the bolt - the top 2 or three turns. Does any one know of a workshop that can do this in the West Midlands please ? Ideally I don't want to replace them.

I meant 'after removing the nut' of course. Not sure how to edit the original text ?

I think it would be better to get some good second-hand ones.

Perhaps Pmac will have some?

i would just take them to a engineering shop and ask them to run a die down them first with the right thread/pitch and put some new nuts on them and see how they come out before you get some others
worth a try

Bearing in mind that the nuts are torqued to well over 200 ft/lb, they need to be perfect. Good secondhand preferred for me...

If it's only the initial thread there is no point replacing them.

If you can drop them over to me I'll get them done at work.
