    There is almost buckleys chance of getting it to stay in. Apart from a welder.

    gona ahve to goto hardware shop tomorrow, unless someone can sugest some other way to do this without needing a welder?

    screw the nut onto the screw, and mangle the thread so it doesnt come undone, you can do this by just hammering the thread with a hammer, and grinding off the excess...
