Strut brace part no help

I’m an idiot and I stripped the stud and nut on my strut tower brace. Anyone know the part numbers? I can’t seem to find them.

I believe you have to get the entire assembly. P/N should be 51618076674.

Sucks...but relatively cheap lesson. I've had much worse (costly) mistakes.

You could always tap and die that back, as long as it’s not really bad.

Piece of advice. Put things in by and and start nuts and bolts like that. Stop using power tools to zip shit on from the get go. Pretty had to strip stuff by hand.

I ordered a tap and die set and I’ll see how that goes.

Make sure you know how to use it and you measure the threads correctly with the gauges in the set or you will make things worse.

You’re lucky that stud is in a removable bracket and not part of the strut tower itself or you’d be much worse off if the threads were really screwed.
