It's the crack from He!!,HELP!!!

Ok,Here's the problem,I noticed that my steering was kinda funky,Like it didn't want to turn that well sometimes.Well,Today I noticed that the inner wheelwell where the steering box mounts to has a nice size crack and starts to flex when i turn the wheel.Do any of you think i can sheet metal it all up and it will be ok,or should i try to weld the crack?the crack goes 3 inches across the top and a few inches down.

get a wonder bar. it reinforces the subframe by conecting the two sides of the car together and stops what happened to yours.
by the way, weld ot up before installing the bar.
