Castle Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Yeah it has been covered loads of times before, you can buy some of that plumbers tape and wrap around the bolts....works for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerotop Dave Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Also suggest looking at Supraforums... http://www.supraforums.com ...as I looked a while back and a search barfed up lots of threads about fixing loose roofs (USA = more aerotops). Infact it was interesting that the Toyota order of doing up the roof bolts (as depicted on the sticker in the central cubby hole lid) has been largely debunked over there...

bromy Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Like Castle said try wrapping ptfe tape around the threads on the bolts or if the threads are getting really stripped you can get a helicoil kit from toyota, or find out the thread diameter and pitch and any good engineers supplies will be able to get you a kit. nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
