    Id get a used slider from a wrecking yard.... But first I would go over that teailer with a fine tooth comb to see if it's even worth doing that.

    Looks like it had a stress crack welded up at another time in its life. Check the other side to see if it has same pattern. Bet that tandem rack never got moved much in its past life.

    No issues at all Prior to this. I do use stoppers however to move the pins. This was out of the blue as it showed no signs

    It wasn't out of the blue.
