Default stripped screw holes...

Ive began to notice that some of the screw holes in my df03 have began to strip and the screws arent tightening anymore, probably due to over tightening in the past, is there anything I can do to fix this? Im having visions of going over a jump and the rear end of my buggy detatching from the chassis... lol

put a tiny drop of CA-glue in the screwholes and then screw them back in.

Do NOT use (regular) threadlock as this weakens the plastic or destroy the small grip that was left.
