One trick I have used is to remove the whole frame rail (on that side with the broken bolt)which may give you a little better access to welding a nut onto the broken shaft of the bolt. Only other thing to try is drilling out the center of the bolt as suggested below gently increasing the size of drill bits used. Left hand drill bits work best. Or, invest in a good set of Blue Point extractors. These are industrial tools and quite expensive but well worth the money. A friend gave me a set awhile back and its the best tool in my toolbox. I've never broken one either like so many of the other cookie cutter ez outs.
