I don't know how bad the damage is but I had good success using 3/16"x3/4" mild steel bar stock. I liberally glued it at the weak points and cracks using two part epoxy from Home Depot. I also reinforce the mounting flanges that always have a lot of stress. I filled a couple of the cracks with the epoxy on the outside and smoothed it off. Relatively cheap and easy fix that is very sturdy and has held up well. It does not show from the outside and this bad boy is a worker not a show tractor anyway.
