broken skid plate bolts
« on: May 11, 2008, 08:55:00 PM »
I have one broken skid plate bolt in the frame and one nut plug thats broke the weld off so it just turns now both on the drivers side. I have flat stock and L stock steel. I went to the dealership and asked about the problem i am having. They said I can buy new nut plugs and grind out the old ones and have the new ones welded in. Has anyone done this before? or have the tools to do something like this. and whats it going to cost me if it can be done?
