Clutch removal issues on a 108

Hmmm..., from what you said in your first post it sounds to me that your best course of action would be to replace the entire clutch assembly.

If that is your planned use than maybe this is your best option...

What I meant was, if you have a new coupler, without no wallered out holes, you could add set screws to it to get more bite on your worn creeper shaft. But no, not drilling and threading the shaft.

Another good option.
