The best solution it will be to use a rust inhibitor product for the sub frame so you don't have to replace anything, I recommend using Rust Bullet it is a very good product I have used it on my car and never had rust problems after that.

Drive shaft rubs against the sub frame

Year make and model? If you have a front wheel drive? you have a serious frame and mount problem. My guess would be the frame is rusted away. Probably should not be driving this car.

I have a 98 Nissan maxima and main brace under motor going to the front is rusted brace is OK but what it bolts to is rusted how do I fix

go to a wreckers that handles your make of vehicle and buy that section complete ( rust free unit)
drill out the spot welds where the rust unit is attached to the body sub frame
do the same for the new section
position the new section in place against the sub frame and you have 2 options her
either weld the parts back together ( best get a qualified welder to do this)
or drill holes and use grade 8 bolts to bolt the sections together
remember that it is an integral part of the sub-frame so it has to be done properly for safety

Rusted subframe

You may need to get rid of it. If the frame is rusted, it's only going to get worse. If the motor mount is not sitting just right, it will only get worse too. I would either sell it as is or have a welder to look at it to see if it's repairable.
