Hi all,
While dropping the skid plate on my '82 Scrambler, one of the nuts inside of the frame broke free of what I'm assuming is its weld. Fortunately, it broke free after I had the bolt about half way out and I was able to hack saw the bolt in half and drop the skid plate.
Is there any way to fix this other that having someone cut open the frame and weld in a new nut? Say, some sort of grade 5 butterfly nut? The hole is larger than I'd like to tap (I'd say 9/16" or 5/8"). Right now I'm running with five bolts rather than six.
Thanks in advance.
