hey dude i think the weldz are breaking because there is too much leverage in that set up.
my traction bar is mounted on ether side of axel housing it does not affect ground clearence because it does not hang lower than the center and my springs have not bent due to the torque load that is taken of the front spring half this has been running like this for 5years
hop this helps

Thanks for the help guys!
I'll be using the assistance of a forklift tomorrow to cycle the suspension to ensure that the arm will not have too much of a detrimental effect on suspension travel. Once I confirm this I shall get out the grinder, clean up all the bird shiat, turn the nob up to 130 and lay some thick weldz. I sill also take the advice of 2 car with his strap design and hopefully it'll all hold together. If it doesn't, you'll all probably hear about it!
Thanks again.
