One of the rear hubs on my 39 H has the threads stripped on 3 of the lug bolt holes. Has anyone had any sucess repairing these, or should I start searching for a replacement?
Thanks for any advice or opinions.

Thanks for the replies. I'll take it to a machine shop.

Heli-coils are plenty strong for the job, but to install them, you need a tap drill, tap, and inserting tool. You also need some way to make sure the heli-coil goes straight into the hub and is in the same location as the original hole. Unless you have the above covered, I suggest you have the job done at a machine shop.

The heli-coils are stronger then the threads they replace. I wish I could find some 1/4 - 40 heli-coils for the idle needle threads in my H carb.

I am a machinist by trade with 25+ years experience and would have no problem using threaded inserts. They have a rockwell "C" hardness of 43-50 with a tensile strength of 200,000 psi. when installed properly.
