I have stripped a non-essential bolt in the frame and want to replace it on my BJ8.  I really don’t want to drill it out, re-tap it and use a larger bolt for visual reasons.  I don’t have access to a welding machine (probably a good thing).  Is there a way to re-fill the hole and tap it to the correct size?  There could be a lot of stress on the bolt.
