HELP stripped hub bolt

I just bought new warn hubs for my 92 toyota. I took the 6 bolts off the hubs i have now and i took off the 6 acorn bolts and removed the cover to the hubs. i tried to loosen the bolt thats in the center of the hub and it just kept spinning so i put the truck in 4 wheel and the bolt stopped spinning. i went to loosen the bolt that holds the hub in and it was already stripped. what should i do now? please help

What? Which bolt are you talking about? Take a picture.

WARNS suck compared to the OEM Aisins.

when you take the cap off the aisins theres a bolt in the center that you have to take off to get the hub off its a 12mm and it has a washer behind it

The "gold" bolt/washer that is in the end of the axle?

The axle hole has stripped threads or the bolt has boogered up threads? You can drill and tap the hole or clean up the threads with a bottom tap and buy a new bolt.

Hammer a smaller socket on it and hit it with an impact.

Or try to bolt out sockets.

Shouldn't be too bad.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. But, I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

There aren't any parts that are seperate from the hub locker body behind that bolt. The body comes off as one piece. Your new hub locker bodies should have all the required components. Nothing gets re-used, except the nuts/bolts/washers. AFAIK.
