Default 2001 disco II ball joints removal

Looking for some advice. I have to replace front passenger side ball joints on my 2001 disco II (https://www.roversnorth.com/store/p-...covery-ii.aspx). I think I stripped the bolt on the ball joint. This will make it hard to remove the bolt connected to ball joint. I am aware of the special tool (LRT-57-036) that I will need. Just checking ahead of time for any advice through this process. Thanks

What did you strip? The clamp bolt, the threaded stud that threads in to the track rod, or the threaded stud on the taper?
