You'll need to make it. 

 

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor <version>\Design Data\XLS and modify the Threads.xls, you might need to also alter the Clearance.xls, be sure to Save the originals some where, I usually just Saves and add _Original to the name.

 

It's been a while since I used Inventor, but pretty sure it's just the case of adding the new information, make sure they are saved to correct location and are correctly named Threads.xls and Clearance.xls, when you restart Inventor they should be there.
