Center brace bolt hole is gacked

This might seem like an odd question but does anyone know how to replace the threaded blocks or pieces for the tunnel center brace? One of mine has gotten messed up and wont let the bolt go all the way in. Tried finding parts on a few GM sites and haven’t found anything.

Short of ramming the bolt in there does anyone have a suggestion?? Would like to put the brace back in if I can

I’ll give it a shot, thanks! I think it got gacked by putting the bolt in at an odd angle and probably chewed the piece up. It goes in halfway and then stops basically lol

Thinking about using a bigger rivnut but not sure what the diameter of the hole is. Will be checking it out later tonight
