What is your truck? If you going to pull it out I would replace the stripped case and be done with it. You say the trans it rebuilt? Does it have any warranty or did you do it yourself? With only 4 bolts holding it on you want it to be as strong as possible, its got quite a bit of stress on when four wheeling. You can go with a bigger bolt and if that doesn't work then do a helicoil if a new case is out of the question.
