You lost me a bit on tweaking the hole, I'm not sure how to do that. A piece of wire inserted along the threads would probably lock it into place. Perhaps there's a conductive tape wrap if one exists? These must be grounded to the body I'm guessing. Maybe surface ground (i.e. face of the door jam) is enough. This cab is coming off anyway....Might be just as well weld and drill.

Incidentally, some drill and use a tap. Apparently that's not necessary, though may be cleaner.............can't really say.
