It would be interesting to know how many of the cracked ones are using the factory stanard shocks.

Mine are which are going to be replaced promptly. Unfortunately I'm out of warranty and looking into options. Has anyone successfully repaired without replacing the entire chassis?

Is your chassis one of the original ones which should have the bolt-in brace retro-fitted or it is the later design with the definitive welded in brace? (the excellent buyers guide has pictures https://www.mtwc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Final-150.pdf)

Where are your cracks on both sides?

First contact the factory and see what they say about whether they will fix it for you.

They're on the bottom, on the vertical support that connects to the wish bone brackets. It has the old style wishbone brackets. I'm going to get some pictures up in a day or two as I can

Check out Phil Bleazey's REPAIR

The 2014 chassis cars are much stronger than the early ones so I would hazard a guess that yours may be an early chassis car that wasn't registered until 2015 (for some reason).
