Very sorry to hear about the crash but the important thing is that you are ok.

I agree with John that the metal plate doesn't seem that well supported (i.e. cantilevered off the wishbone) and the welding may also have weakened the plate leading to fatigue. Extending the wishbone tubes further out (like they are on the top wishbone) is a good idea.

Are there any signs of fatigue/cracking on the other side?

I wonder if anyone else has had the same problem.

Also, it will be interesting to see what Marlin have got to say on the matter...
