Default rusted front shock mounts
Flunked Maryland inspection for severely rusted rusted shock mounts. Anyone ever fix this problem.

Yeah you replace the whole coil spring/shock mount on the axle it takes welding,Or if you can't weld then you change out the whole front axle.

TNT makes a great coil bracket with shock studs to eliminate the bar pins.

If the rest of your ride looks anything close to that it can't be repaired, sorry but it's done.
