[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1514512, member: 2736"] The best way to fix it is go to a larger screw and re thread the tang to fit. The floor metal hole may have to be enlarged to except the larger screw but that is easy. I also recommend staying with the same thread pitch so the threads will clean up perfectly. (Don't thread a 32 pitch hole with a 28 pitch tap or vise versa. I sometimes use a metric screw if it will clean up a stripped hole without enlarging the hole to much. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
