Ask yourself this, what if it next time it breaks the front end makes a sudden dart toward a building, ditch, curb, parked car----you may have a lot bigger problems. Not trying to be pessimistic, but welding this up as a satisfactory repair isn't very likely.

You are probably correct, its been welded once before like that, and I always wandered how I was going to fix the spindle if I wanted to take it apart.
The picture of the ones on ebay have the arm solid on top, was the one I have drilled through to get the weld on top of the spindle to the arm?
