I recently noticed a crack in what appears to be part of the frame/chassis of my truck. I have a 2014 2500hd. With a 8in from Full Throttle. I've attached some pictures of what I'm talking about. The crack is right above the bolt, on the brace welded onto the frame. Anybody else have this issue before? Any recommendations or advice? I could simply pushing it off a cliff and report it stolen. All kidding aside please help me out here!

I vaguely remember seeming this a few times. Maybe not on here but on the internet. ram 2500 frame stress crack. As for a fix, id have a professional body/frame shop check it out, maybe they can weld it. A dealer would probably blame the lift.

Looks as though the brace is to thin to absorb any flexing. Is a thicker brace available?

With a 8 inch lift, Dodge will never stand behind that frame.
Good luck.

I thought there was a recall on the track bar mount. I am not sure what years were affected, but it wouldn't hurt to check to see if yours is on the list.
Either way good luck with the repair.
