    When I was threading the caliper screw back in the screw stripped the threads inside the caliper, and now won't go in... I don't know what I can do with it now

    Chase the threads with a die set.

    just curious why did you remove the bleader screw all the way? you might be sol and have to get a new caliper unless you can fins another blead screw that is larger and tap the caliper threads.
