Was it an alloy screw? I'd still suggest pre-tapping those parts especially. After doing the first few with a hudy driver and CS hex screw, I put a 2mm bit in a drill and did them all really quickly with the drill. The suspension blocks are the hardest ones to screw into I think.
Shame about breaking one - once tapped they will be a lot easier to put in.
The nicest ones to use are the ones from Tonys Screws that I used on my Df03 - nice deep hex meant they were really nice positive fit with the driver and you'd have to be a maniac to strip one. Not heard back from him yet but I know he's putting one together. I'll be using the ones from Champ myself so thanks for letting me know.
