I want to remove my rear tow point that I put on last summer and put a trailer hitch on. My dilemma is that I had to drill out the holes and broke one of the bits in the hole. My ex neighbor welded that part of the tow point on. What would be the best way to remove the tow point and get the bit out?

cut it off carefully with a die grinder cutting wheel, or a grinding burr

use a center punch and a hammer to knock the remainder of the bit through the hole if nothing is protruding

as far as getting a bolt back in that location, probably have to try to rethread it to a M14
