Stripped bolts in hub assembly

[Trey Figgity]

So I bought this 89 v1500 and putting new ball joints in but one of my hub assemblies the birds are stripped.... What's the best way to handle that?

Pics? What comes to top of my head,is heli coils,time serts,or tap for next bigger fastener and drill corresponding piece for bigger fastener.

I would drill and tap to the next size, stay with whatever the thread pitch was, coarse or fine. I'm not quite sure what you are talking about specifically, if it is high stress thread it, if low stress, Like Rick said, Helicoil (good), Keen Sert thick series, (better).
