luckely only one came out with the threads i think. i looked ast them and i ran another stud through it to see if the threads were still going to work and it tightened right in maybe i wont have to drill. whats your opinion on this matter. only one didn't come out with the nut and its the one that looks like it striped out a bit on the inside all the others are good and intact
WOOOT i should get most of my parts tomorrow from toyota
oh and the gasket was pretty decenigrated/melted on the side that was really loose
