Let me start by saying I’m not a fabricator or expert welder. You may have seen my post about the TBP 4r70w crossmember not working with my JD radius arm brackets. I was going to just modify the stock brackets but the [mention]Dax [/mention] challenged me to make the TBP part work.
I’m off work today and the metal shop is open so here’s my idea. 3x3 angle notched and cut to fit, then weld it in place. Once that’s in place, cut out the original angled plate that’s in the way and weld the backside of my piece. This way I don’t have to worry about throwing off any of the original angle or dimensions.
Will this work? Will it be strong enough? 3/16 or stick with 1/4 like the TBP bracket?
