Well I have to step back and appolajise as I mis interpeted what I was looking at laying on my back in an Ice storm last night, In the daylight I was happy to find that it was actuallly the weld that failed and not the arm. What looked like the end of the arm sheared off was actually a cover that keeps mud out of the end of the tube. All I will have to do is prep the material and squarly weld the bushing back in.
The arm is intact. it appears this dammage may have been done and I didn't notice it when buying the tractor because there was pitted rust around the failure area and the only fresh unrusted steel was the part tat ripped out. In looking at the other side I can see that the dammage on the mounting point is old. I am going to weld it all back up where it was and reinforce the entire area. The QA bracket I bought shifted quite a bit when the point failed. I am going to fix that with some squaring up and some welding.
I feel much better about this after seeing it in the daylight. Still not happy about it but it could be much worse.
