I've managed to mash the thread on the big m20 thread on my F/N/S radius arm!!!

Does anyone know if the thread is part of the arm? Will I have to change the whole arm???

Tried that to no avail - When I took off it unscrewed till the stud bit was just clear of the nylock bit - then just round and round stripping the thread untill I realised Wow I've turning this for a while it must be nearly threre?
Alas no - out came the pry bar same time as unscrewing -
Result _ stripped thread !!!!!!!!!
