Default Trailer Hitch Bolts

Hi All
2000 Cherokee
I needed to remove my trailer hitch and ended up breaking most of the bolts. Is there a way to remove the bracket that holds the bolts or do i have to try to drill and tap which I would dread since I broke about 4 of them,
Thought I seen a few brackets at one time that fits in the frame Channel but could not find it

I had to take the rear bumper off so i could access the internal nutstrips to remove them. They are easily replaced once the bumper is off.
