Thanks for the ideas. Sounds like those nutserts are not too strong
then. There is no bolt stuck in the hole, it is just that the threads
are damaged by rust and by the previous owner who put on a bumper
using metric bolts. I'm doing this to install a tow point so I'll
drill through and insert a 6" bolt from bottom to top in the bumper
attachement holes. I'll use the stock hole farther back on the frame
and for extra strength drill through the frame where the round
crossmember is and put in another bolt with a nut inside the round
crossmember. That should be strong enough.

The long bolt through the frame isn't a good idea unless it has a crush
sleeve inside the frame. It won't stay stable or tight.

It is easy enough to put one in.

Thanks Mike. Actually, I was planning on using a crush sleeve thanks
to your post regarding feedback on a bumper design in another thread.
Already bought the pipe!
