Helicoils sucks and are a temporary repair - fix it THAT time. If you want to fix it permanently, then use Time-Sert.Ā Explain Drew.Ā Drew - that owns this site - is your boss?!Ā Who the fuk let Drew into a position where he's bossing people around?...Ā FML, Biden is the President, and Drew is bossing fuckers around.Ā What are we in for, here?...Ā Ā EDIT - This by NO MEANS correlates Drew with that FukWad Biden, in any way, shape or form...
