Today I had a 46 Lincoln on my lift. I was repairing the upper mount on passenger side rear. The whole undercarriage is custom. The welds looked like kaka but they've held for 25 years so I guess they're OK.

Anyway. It was a tough spot. I cut off part of the old bracket, welded it back together, and reinforced it with some 1/4" plate.

It's interesting to come behind someone's work. 25 years certainly reveals what was done right, and what wasn't.
