Does brazing suck up into the joint like soldering? Thinking out load that a hard solder sucked inside might hold better that a brazing that does not.
Maybe even putting a sleeve inside the tube, to give more wall thickness to thread for the bolts to hold into. Drill the holes in the jaw, then screw in the tube (with insert inside). Then braze (or solder), from the end, and through the holes. Then drill and tap the tube, and insert the bolts.
Or maybe some pins, instead of bolts.
