Damage from removing compression arm bush

@ZMANALEX Please may I ask for your expert option please?  I had the common problem of the compression arm bushing getting stuck to the chassis post.  I got it off eventaully but I think I may have cut too deep with the angle grinder as I've cut into the chassis post a fair bit. I'd say I've gone through at least a quater, if not a third, of the way. Would you mind having a look at the photo and letting me know if it's fine or if i need to get it repaired and welded up?  Massive thanks.  Neil.

Neil,

 

You have certainly weakened the stud, but it should be okay as there is still plenty meat left on the stud, however if I had that situation in the shop I would V it out and weld as required and then dress up to take the bushing.

 

Hope this helps,
