Do they look the same as on my truck? I'd imagine the '62 suspension is different than this '66.

Probably half a dozen ways to fix it without welding but ,as I said, I don't know what about it is busted or where. Great to see what it looks like however. Thanks Onuma.
To replace it with a donor, drill 1/4 hole down the center of rivet head about 3/8 + deep, grind head flush to frame, stick good solid punch in hole and drive rivet out with BFH.
Unbolt. Do the same to donor and bolt donor on your truck.

If you intend to replace with a donor, I have a source for that mount if you PM me.
