Stripped shifter question

[rezachi]

So I stripped the hole where the bolt goes that holds the shifter pivot boss to the shaft that goes inside the transmission. I tried a new bolt as the threads on the end were a little jacked up but a new one won't tighten very well either. Is this as simple as getting a replacement shifter (or maybe just that pivot part), or is there any other ideas I should try?

New pivot or drill and tap the current pivot one size bigger.
