I call BS...with proper tools it would take 15-30 minutes. If OP wants it done right, he would make time.
Also, JB weld isn't something I'd recommend for anything on my vehicles, or anything I care about keeping.

When applied correctly, JB Weld is barely noticeable.😎

Honestly, if the bolt broke being tightened down, then the part that’s left in there is under zero tension....so it’ll unscrew easily.
