I recently broke off the two (one on each side) brackets the lower control arms attach to on the frame. The one next to the gas tank went first, and the other one went one month later.

Are those the ones you are talking about?

I was looking at your specs. 35's with a spool is a lot but you must have your arms at a very severe angle with 4 in spacers on top of the LC coils. That's about 8 inches of lift I think. Are you just recentering with the longer arms or are you moving the axle back? I'd say move it back at least a couple of inches to improve the angle on those arms.
