That or severely worn out diff mounts. Damn, just recently got on this non corporate "safe" line. I broke my first one as well, but at one of the mounting ears, not at the structure like yours, damn.

I wonder if the welding you did got hot enough to anneal the spring steel sandwiched on the other side?
