You need to be very careful whenever you install those forward diff bolts. The diff needs to be as far upward and rearward as possible before attempting to start the bolts. Thread the bolts in by hand at least halfway before even thinking of touching them with a tool.
This is a very simple fix. Buy an M12 x 1.25mm Helicoil kit and two new Nissan diff mounting bolts. Drill out the stripped nutplates with required drill bit. Install the Helicoils into the original nutplates. Install new bolts. No need to remove or destroy the subframe. Should take maybe 15 minutes per nutplate.
