Short term cure would be make a new clutch rod that’s longer that will help with adjustment and stay togethor until he’s ready to spend the money to fix it right.
When you say "weld a higher mount" I'm not sure I'm following where you think that modification happened. I want to keep my eye out for it.

Attached is another picture of the fork.

This community is great. I really appreciate the feedback.

Looks like someone modded the end of the fork.
Should look more like the end on this one.

Keep that link somewhere. You might need a new fork in the future.
