Stripped purchase on stihl hardware.

[OLsappy1]

Hello there, I recently bought a project saw and the previous owner must have used his impact to put this thing together. Does stihl make larger hardware or bolts that will find purchase or do I need to drill and tap or tread chase ? If so . What hardware is recommended and sourced where?
Any and all information is appreciated.
Thanks

Depends on what bolt holes you are talking about. Some can be heli-coiled, some drilled/tapped for the next size up.
