grab handle

The stud might be aluminum tubing, check before using wood and wood glue. Matchsticks will only work on wood studs.

Remove handle. Shoot liquid nailes in the hole filling it. Let dry. Reinstall.

^^ THIS is the answer!
Buy a box of those long stick matches they are the just the right size for the job.

I've tried everything else and none of them work like the match stick method.

Use Elmer's 'Wood Glue' on the match stick. The screw wraps around the wood the glue makes a tight bond and and that screw won't wiggle ever again!! :B

I've used that matchsticks/glue idea before on different things in the rig. Didn't even think of it for this. I'll give that a try since I have everything available. If it doesn't work I'll try the other suggestions. Thanks to you all.

Don't think it will but plastic screw anchors will, remove a screw and go to Lowes and size what you need.

Threadlocker won't do the job.

Thread locker will do little good for a stripped screw. Can you use the next larger screw? Can you move up or down to make new holes?
