Can you back the bolt out of the weld nut or does the weld nut continue to turn with it effectively preventing it from getting removed? This situations get a little tricky and they are very situational but typically it requires getting the old weld nut out of the way and then using an access hole in the frame to fish wire a new carriage bolt and block in it's place.
I attached a link to this page for what to do in your situation for you to check out.
