Mark,
Read it again. Heims joints will remove the space caused by rubber deterioration and deformation but the single attachments will still allow the hinge effect at each end of the bridge, therefore allowing the changing of the camber under side load. Single Heims joints will not stop the two sides of the frame from moving from right to left.

It might be better to leave the bridge as is, functioning as a vibration isolator for the power train and build another detachable bridge to the rear of it to act as a structural reinforcement for the two sides of the sub-frame. This should be done with welded in tubes and shoulder bolts.

We looked at a number of approaches and decided to fix everything including the weak thin tabs that carry the bridges, upper control arms and shocks.

This works very well.
