Other than that there are a lot of people braking discos, may be easyest to just put a new one on.

Having had an axle bracket break on me (A buttock clenching moment and no mistake...) I would just get a decent second hand one. They can be had for £50 -100 quite easily on ebay, forums and scrappys.
Considering you're a novice welder, replacing a panhard rod bracket at exactly the right angle is not the best begiiners project.

You can use the axle casing from a 200 or 300 model, or RRC built after 1986 ish, the ones with 7 bolts on the swivels.
