Nuts and Bolts

Some people use nutserts and threadserts on transmission tunnel.

[Mike] I got mine from Eastwood. http://www.eastwoodco.com

[U] "Harbor Freight has them for cheap. They call them threadserts like Eastwood. Like I said the kit is cheap, and so are the threadserts themselves. I bought some better ones from www.nutty.com the Nutty company. Their threadserts are much better quality than came with the cheap kit and priced less than Eastwood. I plan on using these on the tranny tunnel."

[CD] "Any place listed that sells fasteners should carry thread-serts. Every thing attached to my Cobra has been done with a glued in place thread-sert. Marson Corporation 44 Campanelli Parkway Stoughton, MA 02072.  Tel: 800-343-9664"

[AD] "I bought the tool and assorted kit from Uncle Nutty and it works well:

they also sell nutcerts at Pegassus Racing
http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/

But the install tool is just a bolt with a metal sleeve. Probably ok for a few inserts, but the rivet like hand tool is superior for volume work."

"AND ...just did a search at McMaster for the word 'threaded insert' and they have many types and styles

http://www.mcmaster.com

AND found one more. Fastenal also has them but their site is a tough one to navigate
