I know about the JKS relocation kit, but I'm wondering if there are any other replacement mounts out there?
Here's a picture of what I'm dealing with here. Hopefully it's similar to what you've seen before? How would you guys fix this? I'm not sure which of the replacement/fix guides to follow for this.
Is that one side ripped out? If so that stinks. I've seen people try to weld something up in there, bpe's, but most of them eventually rip out as well. Hard to make a good weld with that sheet metal up in that spot.
If it's not ripped out, then follow the advice above - it works well.
I think it might be ripped out. I'd look again but it's dark and snowy. If it is, am I pretty much screwed? A friend of mine does good welding, might have him weld in a mount if that's my only option.
But are there any mounts for sale out there or would it be easier to have one custom built?
The above will work great if both sides are intact and the bolt just broke. You can clearly see the captured nut in the upper hole, but that lower section I just can't tell. That rusty area might be the snapped bolt/nut. Do you have the shock that came out, was anything still attached to the bar pin, like a bolt and nut?

Rear shock mount broke, recommended action?
