Default Truss rod problem

Is there anybody out there who has experience with replacing the truss rod of an Elite 5 ? Is it possible at all ?

The truss rod screw of my BMT Elite 5 seems to be damaged - I cannot tighten it any more, although the neck isn't as straight as my other Smiths. I don't like to force the movement. Before I remove the screw completely (loosening is possible) I would like to share your experiences with it.

It is the first time that I come into problems with the truss rod. All of my 10 Smith basses never needed a neck adjustment - but now I tried to change the string gauge on my BMT...

Thanks
