As the topic says...
That was quite a surprise to find when i looked under the hood.  It looks like the top left bolt had backed it's way out somehow and put some stress on the bracket.
The pics are from my cell phone so they're not the greatest but they get the job done.

Yeah, it's the one I got from Rick. I'm seeing if it can be welded together for now. I may get a new one.

Steph, I would've take you up on your offer but my dadhad it welded by a friend of his today. I did however find out that the bolt didn't back out, it snapped off. I'll post some pics of it later. Luckily it just unscrewed right out of the block. I wonder if this broke at the sametime as my CV joint at bfest?

Probably... it's all that massive amounts of torque your motor is making... that poor mount can't take the abuse!

So did you add some support to the bracket while you had the welder going?
