ok i just went and welded it and it seems to be holding fine..... the part that hooks to the engine broke off of the bobble strut so i finally got that part off the engine and then went and put a thick bead around it so that it will hold i believe it broke becuz my front engine mount is broke, it is only bolted to the engine with one bolt well now 2 cuz i found another hole... all the other holes in the mount are tore apart.. but im getting a new one soon... hope it holds for now

spud im gonna need your help again with the new post im posting
