Rust repair on a subframe mount

**JRSully** · #1 01-19-2003, 12:22 AM

I know that this is an old topic, let's rehash it one more time, tried to find info on it, no luck. Trying to repair the rusted mid subframe bushing mount (perch) on my 70 Nova, it is not that bad, but since it is off the car, it should be addressed. I guess people commonly weld in a washer to replace the rusted out hole, what is the best washer to use, where can I get it, and does anybody now make a kit for this problem, Camaro resto parts companies.??? Thanks as always

I believe the sub-frame is same as camaro. They make a rust repair kit for camaro that should work for nova also. Roger

Just go to your local hardware and buy a washer. Measure the inside hole size, purchase, weld, grind, done!
