Ok, here is the dealer installed reinforcement. The dealer also installed a new steering gear support bracket, and welded all cracks.  - Yes, I know theres alot of ps fluid there (the red crud). Its leaked for 400,000 miles now, and hasnt gotten any better or worse. And, here is picture of the passenger side frame rail, mine also has a small crack around the idler arm (lower bolt) Just spotted that today. Hmmmmm.  - This van has very nearly 1 million miles on it now. She "could" have had a bit over 100,000 when the dealer did the repair. It "could" have been 340,000 actual miles, then.
