Need some advice on s13 fix - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So I got a s13, I traded a sr20 Ecu for it. Anyways I am swapping a v8 in the car and I was inspecting the car and came across a big problem, the tension rod bracket is welded to the frame rail. Only one bracket is welder but I inspected the problem and there is nothing wrong with bolt hole or threaded alignment stud so I do not know why they did that anyways I am thinking about grinding off the bracket and weld and possibly put in a repair piece. Let me know if you have any info or comments on other possible ideas and ways to repair the problem.
Thanks

The weld is only on the one side of bracket so I think I can grind it off
