How would you repair the bolt hole for the k member on the driver side it's rusted out and thats the only rust on the car so I would not be able to bolt the k member up to hold the engine. Thanks any help will be appreciate if not allowed delete

I'd say you would need to cut a square section of steel out of the k-member and weld a similar size and thickness of steel there and then drill and tap new threads. That is if we're talking about the k-member itself and not the through hole mount that bolts to the k-member.

I'd say just find you another K member and replace it.

That's not the k-member though, it's the body frame of the car but can still be repaired with fabrication. Must be a car that sees salty roads in the Winter.

Ah, pic didn't load on my phone but did on my comp. I thought we were talking about the k-member since you mentioned it above and you can usually find k-members for fairly cheap.
