Hi: I am not a pro mechanic nor am I up to date on this assembly, for what it is worth. .
Try calling some part stores, at one time thay did sell replacement bolts that used a insert assy.
This required punching out existing bolts that are pressed in. Again if you have not alredy done so check with the parts stores & see what advise and kits thay may have.
