You don't just weld the unibody. You need to plate it, get a steering box brace, and a track bar bracket brace. Buy or build them. Trust me, i've been down this road already with mine. And still fighting it.

Same thing I did. It cracked, I welded it and put a steering brace on it. It cracked some more. And another crack started. You need to plate it, get a steering box brace, and a track bar brace. Or it will keep cracking.

You should build a brace from the track bar bracket and tie it into the passenger side like i just did.

Big lift and 35's = very unhappy uni-body Mike. get used to it.
