noticed the other day that i have a crack in the chassis around the lower front bolt for the steering box on my 92' GQ patrol (coil Cab) ute just wondering if any one else has expeerianceed this aswell and what they did to rectify it. so far my only thort was to remove the steering box and grind the crack out and weld it back up and run it again,

any thorts would be appreciated

Thanks MEGATROL

IIRC that is not a uncommon failure!

Grind it out and weld it then brace your front panhard mount on the chasis.
