Oh yeah, BOTH linkages are bent!

The lift linkage on the left side is going to need to be reinforced, somehow. It will just keep bending, and each time it will take less and less force to bend it. Eventually it will work harden to the point where it just snaps in the middle.

I've seen angle steel half-heartedly welded on, and sometimes even old iron water pipe! Naw, you need something other than scrap. You need a piece of DOM tubing, like they use to build roll cages. I'm thinking 3/16" to 1/4" wall, but maybe that's overkill? There should be a size that slips snugly over the bar, and you won't even need to weld if it's the right length.
