Ever run the tube spacer between the crossmember and frame?
 
Is that tube tied into a slider? Cage? Perhaps it’s putting extra stress on the frame at that point?

It hasn’t as long as I’ve had it. Maybe a previous owner did and left little stress cracks and the little bit of wheeling i did caused it to spread?

Yea that’s tied into the slider. I’ve smacked some rocks pretty hard. Didn’t think about that… I’ll need to brace it up somehow to distribute the load. Thanks!
 
Unexpected marketplace find. Picked up a pair of 63” Deaver leaf springs meant for a Silverado for a couple hundred bucks. These are a full leaf pack with a bunch of thin leaves and a military wrap. Should be pretty flexy.
