1) Fasteners are free provided they perform the same fastening function?? This would allow substitution of one weld for another.
2)If I recall, somewhere in there it says that you can repairs can be facilitated as long as they use " standard methods" (or somthing like that.. This clause would also seem to permit welded location if you climed that the old bushing was "worn out".
3) I see no problem with shoerical bearings. Heim joints have been used for years on 510 rear subframes. (heck, I even think that is says that you can specifically use them on suspension). To me a sperical bearing is no different (in principle) than a heim joint.
