stripped threads for tranny oil drain

[b3200user]

Need help, B3200 owner : If the threads on the casing ( not the drain plug it self ) where you screw out your oil drain plug to drain the oil out of the tranny are stripped, what can be done too fix the problem, with out having to change out the whole casing. New to forum, all help appreciated.

The case could have a Heli-Coil put in or drilled and tapped to the next size plug. Where people make mistakes is they over tighten drain plugs in soft metal cases (Aluminum). Not saying it was your fault.

Either a Heli-Coil or tap it out for a plug a size larger.
