I said problems, not breaking.

To me it looks like being welded would of helped . I would say that is why the instructions say to weld them .

 

[86 slo-vo]

i would probably weld them...and brace...

I am so thinking of stealing this guys ideas for the interior, hatch, and air compressor.

Picked up my clevis mounts from railman today and got 3 of them welded on. Also re-attached my slider and welded the radius arm extensions.

Hope you are using a hotter welder, not something you want to do twice. I loved my old 110 welder, but it still couldn't weld thicker steel for crap, just tack. If you have a bottle torch, heat up the areas you want to weld before you weld, you will get better penetration if you are set on using the 110.

Thats some good info. I'll have to try that since I welded them in 20 degree weather.

Those clevis mounts could mess some stuff up if they came off while getting yanked out with a strap .
