Default thread

The thread on that stub axle looks pretty buggered to me , I would not take the chance on that thread holding a nut very well. It might be a Whitworth or BSF thread which are 55 degree V form .

I would remove the whole damaged stub axle and either find a better one or have a go at machining one out of 4140 tool steel . Just my thoughts Mike
