Default inside of nut stripped on bolt

i have an 02 blaster and i took the fatty off so i can shine it up, well i have a bolt on clamp for it so i can hook it up to a spring which helps it hold it on. the nut on the 2 bolts there (stock fatty's have the same to bolts) is stripped and just completely spins around in a circle it dont move up or down just spins. i tried using vice grips to get it off, but that plan failed. does anybody else know how to get the nut off of the bolt.
thanks a bunch
lemme know if you need a pic of it ill try 2 get one if needed

PS.... INSIDE OF NUT IS STRIPPED (THREADS) NOT THE OUTSIDE

I have used a dremel with a cutter disk before.

If you have room you can pry up under it while turning, sometimes works.

Have also used a nut cutter that you put on the nut & tighten so it cuts the nut. This though would involve spending $ buying one.

Ya kinda sorta, has different bits you can put in it for different functions. Also kinda like a roto-zip tool.
