so when i pulled the engine in my '88 hatch, i replaced the old stock motor mounts with solid motor mounts off of ebay (same ones that AM sells). i pulled the engine out, then removed the old mounts, which practically fell apart, and went to bolt in the new solid mounts, when i realized 3 of the bolts had stripped themselves slightly. i simply went to the hardware store and bought grade 8 replacements.

came home and when to bolt them in. 3 went in no problem and torqued down to spec. the 4th one though, would not torque down. it would go in so far, then back itself out a thread. checked the bolt, and it was a little messed up, so i got another replacement, but it does the same thing. so i got it as tight as possible without it backing out at all, and put everything back together.

my question is now, what would be the best way to fix the problem? i thought about filling the hole with some JB weld, and tightening the bolt light before, and just letting it harden up. i know i wouldnt be able to remove the bolt if i needed to, but solid mounts shouldnt need replacing should they?

thread chase the hole, like re-tapping it
