I had the same issue, I cut the bolt off with a sawzall and moved on. Otherwise like others have said, tack weld the nut in place.

I cut down the middle and it loosened the bolt so I could pry the top and wrench it off. The bolt was still reusable and I put a nut in place of the boss for the new bracket.

Glad you got it! (the little things are always sooo much fun!) How did you cut it? Just curious...

Surprisingly enough it only took 1 1/2 cutting wheels. with a rotary tool

Cool. When I discovered those after 40 years of wrenching I bought a 50 pack of wheels off ebay! Rock on!
