Rear Frame Shock Mounts

So tearing down my truck and getting it ready for the 6.0. To my dismay I have found a frame crack at both rear frame shock mounts. What do I do and should I be concerned?

Re: Rear Frame Shock Mounts

can you weld? drill it and weld it. the weld filler should be stronger than the frame steel and fix it well enough for street duty
