__There are several ways to approach this. Are the holes mutilated
when you remove the old fasteners? If the are, they can be helicoiled,
if they are too bad for that, you can install any of several types of
threaded inserts. To see what available, visit a local mill supply
house. These are aircraft quality parts, no fear of them failing in
proper application.

Curt, Greg, et al, several months ago I recall you guys discussing
redoing all the bolts that hold down everything on the roof, I seem to
remember at a rally ???? Any way you guys described a Stainless fastener
that is inserted into the newly drilled holes, then new bolts were
screwed into the inserts. WOULD YA'LL REFRESH MY MEMORIE. I can't find
the old posts. My coach was a Florida Coach and it's starting to show
especially on the old roof hardware.
