Hey guys, I have a scary problem. I changed my shocks, and hadnt looked well at the inside of the trunk before hand. When i finaly took a good look, going to change the rear shocks, i found a good hole on the left shock tower, taking up about a third of the tower on the side directly pointed at the other tower. What can I do? Brush down all the rust and just weld?

I dont like this situation at all and I want to know what my options are!

You will need to cut back to good metal and weld. Before you do that make sure that the other tower is solid. These are very bad spots to get rot in.
