Center bearing support bolt problem

[N97746]

Pulling the driveshaft for a 5 speed swap. One bolt on the bearing support bracket came out fine. The other loosened a few threads and now will spin forever. Looks like there are threaded inserts in the chassis. I'm thinking one of the inserts has broken free, but I can't see up there to see if it's turning. Sooo, bolt won't loosen and bracket won't fall free.
Anybody have this problem or have any ideas ?? Thanks

How far is the nut off of the bolt? You maybe be able to weld the bolt on the chassis still.

Edit: Forget what I said...

If I can get the bolt/threaded insert to come out I would weld the threaded part back in. I'm just guessing that the insert broke free. I can't see up there to be sure. Pulled the seat out and cut the carpet to see if I could get to it from inside but no luck
Thanks, any other ideas? Have been thinking a can of gas and a match, but I know as soon as I throw the match, the bearing bracket will fall free on it's own.

if you can, wedge something between the body of the car, and the bolt head. then, as you turn, pry them apart. That may put enough pressure on the bolt to help find the threads again, or hold the insert still so the bolt can unscrew.

or get a one piece shaft for a few hundred :)

Easy fix, get a one piece driveshaft made and never look back. Its lighter and you do not lose as much torque transfer or hp, due to how sloppy center support bushings are in the first place.
