So.... If a DFPO had stripped all 3 front shock mounting holes, drilled and 
tapped them to 1/2", and drilled out the shock holes to match, (and you 
need to replace the shocks otherwise) would you....
a) Replace the shocks and drill the replacements? (there are good reasons 
to NOT do this, shock-wise)

b) Heli-coil (or whatever brand) the holes in the frame back to 3/8"? Is 
that safe?

c) Do it right by welding in new plates? (we'd rather not go that far into 
the project at this time)

Suggestions welcome.   Thanks   Peter C.
