u pushing hard is nothing to the stresses its under when driving
that fact that it moves at all tells me its unsafe and shud not be driven
if that collapses while your driving and sends you across the road into god knows what the police can say it was unsafe and your insurace may not cover it

is there a link between this crack happening and having those spring supports fitted,it won't allow the spring it's full movement so the beam is getting more stress?
just a thought.

Exactly!
As for driving your car with a stress like that, you'd have to a be a right twat to think its nothing and that "it'll be fine" 
Personally Id remove the bits in the springs, maybe they are there for a reason, but anything preventing your suspension from working correctly cant be good.
If they're there to stop scrubbing, raise the f'cking suspension!!!!!!!!
