Shock brackets

I would like to know how many people with the Trail-Air suspension has it mounted in the lowest hole. My unit is an 06 and I am breaking shock brackets. First one in my opinon was due to poor welding, but the last two have broken the bottom mount. When this unit was new, I wanted to raise the coach by moving the suspension from the middle hole to the bottom hole, so I called Trail-Air to ask how much torque to put on the bolts. The guy I talked to told me that they did not recommend using the lower hole as it would put to much strain on the shackle. Now with my shock situation I have to either move all the shock mounts or drop the suspension to the lowest hole. I would like to hear from those that have moved their suspension to the lowest hole and has anyone seen or heard of any problems from doing this.
Thanks
