Re: Nfg!!

Looks to me as if there was a basic casting flaw. Even if your bolts were too short, this kind of failure should not have resulted, rather, the boss should have stayed intact and the threads only should strip. I would think the picture alone gives reason enough to call upon the supplier to replace.

As stated elsewhere above, common sense would suggest the supplier replace this for you, however, common sense can be surprisingly hard to find in many places...
