Im trying to add a radius rod to my car. On the forward bracket, what does this tapered screw in to in the frame? Right now I just have about a 9/16" hole, too big to catch any threads. Is there a cage nut like the front leaf spring perch? If so, how do I get it in?
I pulled this from the 67 Camaro AIM, looks like the bolt passes through the hole and has washers and a nut holding it. Sorry if this is incorrect.
If I remember right, I think there is a threaded blind insert nut in the side hole for the bolt to screw into.
I'll check my '67's later.

Dang, it's going to be tight getting a nut on this screw (#19 in the AIM page provided). I can only fit one finger in the frame hole to hold a nut.
Some type insert nut would be easier for sure.
NUTSERT. Fastenal SKU 0128201
Hard part is the install tooling; Commercial or DYI
Thank you for that part number. Can you elaborate on this: "Hard part is the install tooling; Commercial or DYI"? Is the tool needed for this nutsert different than the common "OTC" install tools? Thanks
Yep....I checked and see the round collar of the blind nut. View C in the above diagram confirms that.

RIVNUTS... I think the entire kit from Finish Masters was about $100.

A special installation tool isn't needed. There's several videos on Youtube .
