I was wondering what the best way to fix the bracket that the body attaches to on the frame.The holes are to big from when I took them apart and they crumbled all around where the bushings go.I can post pics if anybody needs to see.

a common way to fix the rotted out body mount holes. is weld BIG washers over the mount..
on my one cars side rear mount. I cut to fit a peice of metal to replace the rusted top.

Thats what I thought I could do. Do you know the hole size for the bushing?

I welded the big washers to the under side so that it would not effect the hieght of the mount.
