I agree nothing wrong with welding something on the outside of the axle tube.

Re: HELP PLEASE!!! Shock Mount on Diff
given that replacement mounts can be bought from most axle shops they are all welded on. the axle tubes are just coldrolled and take weld just fine. I would weld it and if its torn through the mount where you think it would be weak fish plate it, then you should be fine. happy fixing.
