Repair day today!
removed paint to get a good weld
ive welded this in with an arc stick welder as the original plate was quite thick,
offered up and tacked the plate then reasembled the top mount to make sure it was in the right place.
be warned the rubber mount is quite big so dont weld the plate to far back into the cup or the mount wont screww in properly
cleaned off the paint so i could weld some side filler plates to limit the forwards back movement too
Note the belting protecting the engine from debris entering the Aux/Cam belt
filler plates welded
cleaned up before paint
all masked up
Nice Coat of primer before the topcoat
