Wondering if a jig would be needed to drill, tap, and helicoil the bolt holes on a steering bolster that hold the set screws which hold the universal mounting frame (UMF) tight on a Super A, 100, 130, and 140. I've never had to make this repair before and have seen/read where forum members have a "jig" for doing this on the final drive holes, but also didn't know the purpose of the jig either. I was planning to get my drill and go after it unless someone recommends using a jig (would need to know how to make it), or has other tips and tricks before I dive in. This is my first helicoil repair on anything.
I've got a good 21/32" USA drill bit, the 5/8"-11 helicoil kit, and my Milwaukee M18 Variable Speed Drill with 5.0 Battery.
