Front subframe bolts
Hello
I had to do clutch replacement for my MY '01 S and off course needed to lower the subframe. Front bolts (nr. 10 on picture) were badly seized and both snapped. I had to drill and re tap.
I ordered 2 new bolts. Part number: 90162-S2A-000
Old bolt probably look'd like this:
But new bolt looks like this:
Part number is correct. On new bolt thread is too short. It goes thru the thread in chassis before it tightens against the subframe.

In order to drill and retap the thread, did you drop the whole subframe, or were you able to go through the bolt hole in the subframe. I'm stuck in a similar situation right now.
