Default Has anybody seen this before?

Hi guys, in the process of stripping the engine and its accs from the engine bay of the 95 Limited that I am wrecking I noticed something that I hadn't seen before.

Has anybody seen this sort of damage in this location before????

had to have mine welded up as well.

you can see where the bolts have been moving - I also had some washers welded on to the bracket to stop the bolts moving - the clearance holes are just too big

I have heard of the steering box mount cracking but I have never heard of the panhard rod mount cracking before.
You learn something new every day I suppose....

I thought it was odd as nothing was tight, normally all of these brackets are very tight but they were all not much more than nipped....
