hey guy i was changing my open diff out to an lsd the other day and i noticed quite a serious crack in the right front mount i had noticed the car sitting slightly lower on one side i assumed it was sagging springs. ive looked around and it seems to be a common problem ive looked into it and found a subframe reinforcement kit BUT from the looks of their repair video there mounts only have cracks and are easy to weld up i have SOOO much metal missing around the mount that im worried it might be beyond repair.

SO my question is has anyone done this befor was it a Major to fix. ive thought i could try fit a plate inside and weld it from the inside repair and then install reinforcement kit.

please help me sorry i cant upload pics forum wont let me

good stuff! I'm struggling to get out of third too
