Torque tube problems

I have a Farmall 100 with fast hitch and loader. while using the fast hitch with a 4' fast hitch brush hog the bolts pulled out of the torque tube that hold the touch control hydraulic block to torque tube. Of course they will not thread back in. Question is pull it apart and try to add a heli-coil insert to the torque tube and hope it taps and threads the cast and holds or do I look for a new torque tube? What torque tubes will interchange? Will a super A thru 140 work or do I need something from the numbered series 100-140?
Thanks
 
Rather then helicoils i prefer Keenserts . They will hold more easy to install with standard drill bit and a standard tap and the only thing needed is the tool to set the lock pins . If they strip out they can be replaced easily . They also will hold more .
 
The Vet is on top of this. I only use the inserts as they are fully machined threads, not a "spring" Many options for repair. If the holes are not drilled into the interior of the case, don't allow your drill to go through either. If it is into the case, use a vacuum to pull chips out of the hole to prevent internal contamination. Jim
 
I will try the keenceerts I will see if we have some at work to look and see what they are. I think it would be easier to fix what I hae instead of tearing the tractor all the way apart! thanks for your thoughts
