This bump stop fell off yesterday while fettling the wheel arches , only to reveal a good sized rusted hole in the box chasis ..... Shocked   can this be fixed with a good bit of welding ?

That is the rear chassis  Question

Can it be welded - probably.

Yes but it depends on your welding skills, time available, size of wallet and extent of the rust.  This is the saga went through:-

Wrong!

That photo is of a bump stop below the upper wishbone in a front arch.
The rear ones are oblong, with a pointed tip, which contact onto the chassis rails.

If only Mitsubishi had galvanised them. I think only Peugeot did a proper job of that back in the 90's. Even Mercs were rot-boxes in those days.

Had similar on mine and found it was just the sides so fairly straight forward to cut out and repair - fingers crossed!
