SUCKS

If you cant get it welded stop drill the cracks with a 1/8 drill bit and make a patch out of .090 alum to pick up on both bolt holes and rivet it on . something like this

 
I bet one or both of your front mounts are broken allowing the motor to twist.
 
Ya , i'm hoping to bring it in tomorrow and get it tig welded. Hoping for it to last another year then it will be the wifes sled or a back up!! Gotta buy a new one next year. I was just doing an SC10III install when i sat underneath to clean everything up and i was like oh sh*t. lol oh well. not the first patch job on this sled.
 
Front mounts are good. Always check em'. when it was a couple years old the front p.t.o side bolts broke off and i always keep an eye on them now. I have a torque arm also. This sled has almost 13,000kms and all hard miles so it doesn't owe me anything. Its been beat since new,,lol,,, time for supercharged nytro now!!
