If the weld broke on the right side spring perch broke, would it cause the car to go right at the hit of the throttle??
Depends on where it broke and which side of the car but if the right side is moving forward then it will turn right

When that gets repaired,will also reweld the other perch and do the axel tubes and front shock mount tabs. How do you guys brace the tubes to the perch??

That's what I figured Installed new rear shocks and noticed something shiney in the rust
thats because all the weld is on the bracket and zero penetration on the tube

Buy some perches from Calvert racing, super beefy and lots of wrap around tube.

As stated, the perches should have gussets to the middle or tops of the tubes.
Would that be 4 per side?
2 Per side, 1 front and 1 back of each side of the tube per side. Someone will have some pics.
