To remedy this situation you simple clean the surrounding area on the mount and weld a flat washer to it. This makes a nice hole to retain the shock shaft again when you bolt it down. Pretty nifty and it doesn't take very long at all.




And for the other side as well. It's a little tricky to weld in this area but you can do it without too much trouble. I couldn't get my welding helmet in close enough to be effective so I did it by closing my eyes completely. If you take the time to remove the front tires you could do it with a welding helmet on.
