Easy way to replace a seat stud?

[jtdesigns]

I have two needing fixing. One in my MJ spins, one in my XJ is broken off. Anyone ever replaced one? I was thinking to knock drill'em, out and just put a bolt through the floor. The MJ one is in that raised "rail" in the floor..

Any known options?

 

TIA....

If you do the bolt through the floor, be sure to use an over-sized fender washer under the floor. You don't want the bolt head to pull through the floor in the event of a sudden stop ...

The only thing remaining of any of the 4 studs on the ds in mine were tiny rusty cones. I ground them flat, drilled them out and used 4 bolts, 8 fender washers (one above bolt head, one between floor and seat bracket), 4 washers below the nuts and 4 nylon lock nuts. I opted for the bolts running from the bottom up, so rocks and stuff on the trail would not mess up the threads if the seat ever needed to come out again.

 

Has worked well for me so far.

This thread seems to dovetail well with my seat attachment point thread...
