Stripped Threads In Weld Nut

If front seat anchor bolt(s) will not accept a torque of 30 N.m (22 ft-lbs) when installing front seat(s), use the following procedure.

1. Measure thread diameter of original bolt in a non-stripped area of bolt.

^ A 8 mm (0.31 in.) thread diameter measurement indicates the original production bolt (P/N 21047085) was used.

^ A 9 mm (0.35 in.) thread diameter measurement indicates production repair bolt was used.

2. If bolt thread diameter measurement is 8 mm (0.31 in.), obtain 9 mm (0.35 in.) repair bolt (P/N 21035568) that will rethread weld nut. If bolt thread diameter measurement is 9 mm (0.35 in.), contact Saturn Technical Assistance.
