grind or cut the nut off or use nut splitter//its better to remove the complete assy with the braces and all from the frame to get it out on the ground to work on it

welding a nut on the face of the bolt is a waste of time since bumper bolts are covered with a stainless steel cap and the cap would need to be removed or the bolt would still probally turn with the cap on
