2003 V70 stripped mounting bolt V70-XC70

Thanks Klaus! I was able to tap it out to an M12, which is the max the balljoint would accept. Lots of loctite, and an extra locknut to get me through until I can source one.

That was an important lesson to learn, in spite of running volvos for years.

I cracked the cv boot when I was working on it, so she is due to go back up in the air this weekend. However, I may luck out - she refused to start tonight, and no pressure at the rail - so maybe it is time to get a new one!
