I spent some time looking at this and noticed that all the broken beams I have looked at on the net <dozens of them>are broken on our nearside . That I reckon it is due to the diff being mounted on the offside and when the diff is loaded its putting the beam on the nearside under a lot more pressure. A bit like a tripod with unevenly spaced legs. That brace gadget thing I saw spreads the diff loadings at the nose of the diff evenly. Just a theory I will keep eating the toblerone
