Usually there is some good threads remaining below the stripped area. If there are some threads and if I can substitute a stud for the bolt I simple clean out the hole, run a stud (read this as a cut off bolt with lots of thread length) into the hole until it bottoms and then assemble the device using a nut on the "stud". If the good threads were marginal in length and I was uncertain about the quality of the joint I would have put some JB Weld on the stud prior to installing it and I would let the joint cure over night. One thing to remember is that the first couple of threads on a bolt are undersize and do little or no holding. Therefore, when you make the "stud", clean up the burrs where you cut the bolt and insert this end into the damaged area. Good thread length equal to one times the diameter of the stud/bolt are all that is required to equal the holding power of the stud/bolt if you remove the imperfect treaded end section of the fastener.
