you might still be able to salvage it.. follow the steps mentioned in my Spring Install DIY. I've been able to use warped bolts over and over again.

I did the same thing... had to buy new tie rods from http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/home.htm

They sell a fork looking tool at pepboys that helps it seperate it from the shock.

^^ That's what I have. We also warped one of my friends bolts, and all we did is file down the thread we warped and then put the bolt back on there. Don't let me make it sound easy, it was damn annoying.
