A plurality of supplemental femoral tunnels are formed to provide a basis for suture material fixation of graft tissue/material over cortical bone as replacement or compliment to implants; forming a plurality of supplemental tibial and femoral tunnels connecting with the commonly created tibial and femoral tunnels to provide a basis for suture material fixation of graft tissue/material over cortical bone as replacement or compliment to implants. Inserting the first end of a strand of suture material through the tibial and femoral tunnels and then through each supplemental femoral tunnel. The other end of each of each strand of suture materials is attached to a graft. Another set of strands of suture material is attached to the opposite end of the graft and through the supplemental tibial tunnels. The strands of suture material are pulled graft into the tunnels wherein the graft is positioned in the tibia and femoral tunnels for healing. The strands of suture material are tied over bone to affix the graft in place for healing. In a preferred method the supplemental tunnels are formed by drilling from inside of each tunnel. In another method the supplemental tunnels are formed by drilling from the outside to the inside of the tibial and femoral tunnels.
