Chris. Just been thinking about your rear mounts that you need to repair. Personally speaking when it comes to he job I would get the tub perfectly level then offer the axle up to the hull making sure it is square and level then take your measurements and distances y thoughts being that if the hull is not cock on and the axle is bolted in even just slightly skew, the lower hull may fracture or at very least pull the weld apart. Finding an uncut hull without its axle may be the route you can make patterns which you can place onto your hull so you fix the bits in the right places.


Just thinking out loud.
