Ok everyone, I need some help. I am in the process of doing the 4x114 ITR conversion on my DC. But I came across a problem taking the camber kit of my USDM setup. So like an idiot, I banged the bottom bolt with a hammer to try a get it out. Then realized I needed a pickle fork. But, I ended up stripping the thread on the bolt. Can someone let me know how I can fix this. I got a pic of the part below. Thanks.

 

if its banged up too much not even a thread chaser will help to clean up the threads. You'll need new ball joints.

I dont think its too bad. Just the very first threading got a little bent, but enough to not be able to fit the bolt on.
Thanks.
