Best option seems to be the one you started with a Helicoil
Thats the best plan for now. You can alway take it out later and drill a bigger hole and tap some threads in there. You will need to get a bigger bolt though which my not fit through the frame slider.

JB Weld is a mess and it is permanent. You will want to be able to remove that bolt is you need to.
