Thanks to all the suggestions.  I believe I will put in the extra rod and cable the two limbs involved

This is one of my favorite trees when it is in bloom in the spring.  A bit messy when all the petals drop, but they are small and easily taken care of with a leaf blower.

I did see the photos you’ve mentioned. Another rod may well be the best option but also a static or dynamic cable could be added to take the stress off of the part of the tree that is splitting.

I would put another rod in up higher.  Then do nothing but pay your insurance.  One of the trees at our court house is split nearly to the ground and is still up but I would not park under it.
