I was planning on welding from wheel side for sure if thats what you mean. And yeh you guys are steering me in the right direction I think I can do it like I hurtz maybe I wont do it quite as big though. But just so its running over the top of the mount I think to about the point were it half covering the compression bolt hole. does seem like it will be alot of welding though did you have any fire issue's when you welded yours IHURTZ ? I think all I have to work with really is buckets of water for fire deterrent. I'll deffiently take my time when welding
