overtight axle nuts

[eric-France-]

Hello !
I made a mistake yesterday. I set up new bearings and axle key at the rear.


But after that I overtighted the axle nut and damaged the thread. Any advice of what I could do now, but cry ? I suspected 125lbft in L.A book was too much but I should have stopped before 70... Too late now...



Could I try to make a new thread with a smaller diameter ?


Thanks
