Several years ago, the threads on the check strap bolt that hold the driver-side door open, wore out. I replaced the bolt with a Grade 8 and a new friction disc. Now the threads are stripped again and I can't tighten the friction enough to hold the door in the open position.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a type of bolt that will last a little longer. It's not a big deal to weld in a new one, but I like to get more than a few years service out of it. Would a fine thread work better?
