The only thing I can think of is to get yourself a tap the same size and repair them. If you do not have enough room you can disconnect the rear ds and lower the trany far enough to get to it. make sure any shavings are removed.

I do not but you can take the fitting to the parts house and they can match it up for you.

I have never had that happen,and if I did I would not go back. The folks I deal with will bend over backwards to help.

Yep. Got a bunch of tap sets so I'm going to see what I can do there...if those don't fit right I am going to try and make a tap out of the extra ends i have on the other line hoping that'll work...and if not, what's it take to do a manual swap? lol
