Well, I pretty much f'd up when I started banging at the rear spidle/axle with a hammer without the lock nut on it! OUCH! Well I meesed up the threads on the axle/spindle because the end of the driveshaft kinda got bent up. Now I need to rethread (I hope I can

)

I need to know the thread pitch (size) for the rear axle/spinle in order to get the correct die to rethread it. I know that the metric size is 36mm though for the rear lock nut. This is for the rear axle spindle (driveshaft?) for a S14.
Also, if anyone else has any smart ideas, GREATLY APPRECIATED!
