HELP - Crossthreaded stud hole in the frame/Passenger Engine Mount

I am installing beefier engine mounts, and one of the two lower stud holes that are drilled out in to the frame is cross threaded so that I can't secure the new mount. I have tried using thread ease and cleaning it out, but nothing works and I don't know how to repair it. What should I do?

Thank you,

Ryan

Hi, your saying that you cross-threaded the bolt during installation and now the thread is stripped out in the frame?

It was stripped out, and I was able to take my time, clean out the hole, re-apply thread ease, and slowly work with it to finally get the bolt to take. Mounts are installed now, about t clean up and go for a drive.

Thank you,

Ryan
