How To Clean Out Weld Nuts for Trailer Hitch On 2011 Toyota Corolla
Question:
Planning to purchase C11265 but this is for Corolla 2011 and Nuts are all rusted. Trying to make sure we can use a correct bolt bought a pair of exact M12 1.25 , 30mm from local hardware shop and couldnt fit in. Used wire brush but no difference so should I re-tap the threads ?

In order to install a hitch on a vehicle with rusted weld nuts, the first step would be to clean them with a lubricant and wire brush. If the bolt will still not thread into the weld nuts you will need to clean them out further with a thread tap. A M12x1.25 is correct for a 2011 Toyota Corolla.
