I looked into the heli coil and got even more confused ��

10mm is the diameter. 1.25 or 1.5 is the pitch of the threads. So if the stock bolt is 10mm x 1.25 then you need a 10mm 1.25 helicoil kit. The kit usually comes with a tap and drill bit in the instructions along with the insert tool. I’d recommend looking it up on YouTube. Should be a “how to” or three on there.
