All 2st fixed my subframe :)

i was sad that my side panels needed to be zip tied to the sub frame
after the OEM nut-serts just kept spinning in the sub-frame... so i fixed it
here's how

I had the same thing happen on my 2008 cr 125. I could not get my side panel off. I cut a small hole on the inside of sub frame to hold nut to get screw out.

I need to do this too.

Anthony,
was the new nut-sert the exact same size as the original?

The hole in my subframe is not perfectly round anymore, so I think I'll have to drill it and use the next larger size.

Hey PC,

i just went to the local bearing wholesale store and brought a few different sizes i'm pretty sure i ended up using 8mm stainless steel nutserts (6mm thread) when tightened up as shown, the inside end expands and will lock into the subframe. don't drill anything till you try a few different size nutserts

this is an example of the nutserts

this is a special tool for nutserts (not really necessary)
