Broken front shock mount

Sorry for bring up this thread again but it is still a problem of mine and I have a picture this time to maybe assist you guy's. It seems to be holding up okay the way it is but I really want to fix it but it's going to be a pain to get a welder of any sort in there to make it strong again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Come on fellas, 31 people view it and not one person replies. This is pretty big deal I pressume and many of you guys know way more than I do and I could really use your help.

If it will hold up that's the route that I will go. But it does look kind of hard to get any kind of welder in there, it's a pretty tight space.

This is weldable i myself am a welder and that should be no problem at all.

only problem is make sure not to get it too hot weld it just a little bit at a time if you get it to hot the metal could get too hot and warp causing problems with changing your shocks and getting every thing perfectly straight. also too much heat at once would weaken the structure.
