motor mount

I just pick up a 65 Ranchero with an 289. While check out to engine compartment I saw the dreaded chain on the motor mount. I ordered the mount from the parts store and went to repalce them. Well wouldn't you know the passanger side was striped out! The intermediate mount that is. Can you just replace the stud? or do you have to get a replacement?

A replacement is cheap and can be had at www.falconparts.com. An even cheaper fix is to weld the stud in place from the backside.
