So has anyone else here had to resolve an issue like this? I was thinking I'll have to cut off the wallowed out axle mount and have a new piece of steel welded in its place and drill it. At any rate looks like a death wobble waiting to happen.

Just replace it with a 1/2" grade 8.8 bolt, nylock nut, and new bushings. I had to drill out the stock bolts to use the RE sway bar links.
