Rich Schenk Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm using 1/4 20 threaded inserts with 1/4 20 bolts and lock washers this time. Had issues with t nuts comming off think they would be fine if u epoxy them in before you bolt in subs. Before that always used wood screws.

SnowDrifter Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Another vote for the spax #14 screws. I've had bad luck with t-nuts. Had to cut/drill out my fair share.

all4spl Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I personally make sure whatever type of fastner is used, that the head is FLAT. A lot of people are posting pics of tapered headed screws and those are just bad mojo, asking to break off.

boometro Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 why not the spax mdf screws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
all4spl Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 The Spax have an auto counter sinking head and honestly I wouldn't want that chewing up my sub frame even though its really a minimal thing. They also have a tapered head so they could be prone to breaking the head off the screw easier than a flat head screw due to pressure. I have in the distant past experienced screws with tapered heads such as drywall screws breaking at the head, so I switched to a flat head screw type and have never had an issue like that again.
