Shock mount repair. Posted by Dan [Email] (#2459) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Dan) on Wed, 23 Feb 2005 18:37:59 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
In the reconstruction of the my '76 EMS, I noticed that the area around the upper front shock mount is cracking. Knowing a bit about welding, I know that simply welding up the crack will probably lead to more cracks. What have others done? My first thought would be to make a round disk patch that will go over the post and span out a ways into the body, then I'll weld the edges and maybe plug-weld in the disk as well. How does that sound?
If anyone has repaired this section of their cars, let me know what worked best.
