One of the brake caliper bolts on my 98 XJ is missing. Bought a new bolt from dealership, but the threads are stripped on the knuckle. Too much material missing to retap with same size. Did a search and saw helicoil inserts were a solution and had a question about them. I don't want to pull the knuckle so I would be drilling from outboard to inboard. Can I tap from outboard to inboard also considering the caliper bolt will be entering from the inboard side? Or, is the tapping tool small enough to tap from the inboard side of the knuckle?
Thanks much!
