It
looks to me to be about 9/16X28. I have been able not find a die to recut
them. Do I have the size right and do you have any ideas as to where I can
purchase the proper die.

If you have trouble locating this die you might try a thread file. This is
a file with teeth spaced equivilent to the thread pitch. Most of them are
square and have four different pitches on each end for a total of eight
pitches. If you work the threads with the 28 TPI tile you can clean out
the fouled threads. Takes more work and care than a tap but better than
nothing.
Cheers
Dave
