Here you go
 
Rescued attachment Intercooler_rad_low_view_small.JPG
Shock points at the ball joint so no bending motion on the lower bone, a common fault due to bad design.

My top top would be to read the very very long thread on here about front wishbones bending - reduce bending loads anywhere and if possible avoid them
all together
Next - make a decent jig
 
Second Jig
Weld carefully - distortion is a PITA.
You can buy ready made tubes for bushes and ready made bungs for both oval and round tubing if you are using rod ends - a lot quicker than making your
own.

These are sweet if you fancy a bit of hammer work.
