There is nothing new about what happened. One guy I know, broke one nut using Channel-lock pliers, ordered a new nut and promptly broke that one while using the same pair of Channel-locks. He then ordered in two more nuts but changed to a different tool to tighten the nut with. And no... it was not me. :lol:
You might want to remove the entire clutch from the engine flywheel and really service the entire clutch. If you can get your hands on a die, you could chase those threads and clean them up. High ridges could be removed from the shaft as long as you don't reduce the proper diameter any. Bearings, shims, spring washers and clutch lining can be checked as well as making sure everything goes back together in the correct order. So many clutches get screwed up by former owners, it isn't even funny.
