I just replaced the worn castle nut and bolt with a longer bolt and used two nuts to lock it. Are you saying the frame or axle are supposed to be threaded? If so the threads are worn away. The bolt slipped right through them both. The frame is a C-channel so I tightened the first nut until the axle didn't wobble but was free to pivot, then jambed it with the second nut.
