just buy new ones as it will not hold .
If u are breaking then chain it down and it will stop them from breaking .

Honestly mate, Ive gone thru this before in a FWD car that keeps breaking, and mate its not worth it, depends how hard you drive your engine they'll tear. Get new ones and newish ones would be way better.

I did mine just before a rego inspection - on auto GLTA box mounts, using an M6 bolt straight through the plates and rubber block, finished off in matte black paint. Did the trick giving a slightly more solid audible rumble but box went nowhwere and was not a concern for the inspector. On convert to manual I found one bolt broken without feeling or hear the result.
