Hold new nut in hole using a minimum 2"+ bolt threaded into nut.
With the new nut flush with the frame member, using a TIG welder, tack the nut to the frame member on the outside.
Remove bolt carefully, continue to tack in more spots and/or finish weld
When cooled off, chase thread with a tap if needed.

With a good weld, there should be no grinding flush needed.
20 minute task, max.
Appreciate this Seatia! I'll look into it.
