Hello All..I am rebuilding my 1964 C10 and have hit a road block. On my lower control arm, one side will not accept the cap threads that hold in the control arm bar. I have swapped the caps to the other side and it threads as expected. Any suggestions? Does anyone know if it is a 1 5/8" tap? I would prefer to "fix" this rather than replace the piece. Please let me know!

Best Regards
