Stripped threads in final drive housing

Howdy, all.

I've been trouble keeping equipment mounted on my Super A. The threads in the center hole on one final drive housing are just about gone, and if I work for any length of time the bolt will just wiggle its way out. I've put lock washers on it, but that doesn't seem to help any. As best I can tell it's only holding with a few threads. Has anyone dealt with this before and what would you recommend?? I'd look into helicoils but I'm just about certain they don't make them in the odd size IH used here (well, the size and TPI are pretty standard, but the geometry of the threads is a bit odd.)

Thanks in advance,
Darren
