Default 99' cherokee t-case support studs/bolts

Hey guys I'm planning on doing a lift on my Cherokee and I looked under it at my shop the other day and saw that one of the studs on the t-case support was snapped off. When I go to drop my t-case what am I going to have to do in order to put the stud or bolt back in.

if it is broken off flush then drill it out an re-tap it bigger, if there is some stud exposed then just try a stud extractor.

use a Cobalt steel drill bit, go slow and don't overheat the bit. it takes WAY longer to drill with HSS vs Cobalt
