hi, if you mean broken off bolts in the frame - drill and tap. if the nut plate that's welded into the frame is stripped... that's a lot harder to deal with. those brackets can get by with only 2 of the 3 bolts in place. or....'if I had to' I might weld just ONE of those brackets to the frame, but never both. Would rather not do anything so drastic ....but that is an option, though an undesirable one. Scott www.turbovans.com
