If the car in question is the E36 325is mentioned in your profile, the part in question is the rear trailing arm (assuming we're talking about the lower shock mounting, and not the upper). Part number 33326774777 for the left one, and 33326774778 for the right. I wouldn't recommend tapping it. Doing so would require going to a larger thread, at which point the correct fastener wouldn't fit the shock anymore. Best to just replace the arm; should be available pretty cheap in a junkyard.
It's ALL ball bearings nowadays!
