cripes, good work!
Good going dude, only thing i think is would you not been better making a box type section for the legs to fix to instead of boxing them in (if that makes sense?)
Scott
Welding looks good Ad, but I agree with Scott. You really wanted some spreader plates and then the cage feet welded to the spreader plates! That way it will spread the load.
Ad here is how Dar's brother did mine on the center legs, it's a bit that been bent into a half box etc, and then welded to the floor/inside sill.
(if you can see it)

But i guess it's too late for showing you this now lol
Yeah i get what you're saying. Nevermind, its staying now.
Actually, it never even crossed my mind about doing it that way till now, would of probably been easier tbh! lol
Adam who did you get the cage off of?
Good work.
hi Adam, really good project and made for a good read, im not picking on your welds because im no where near a pro or even any good :). but over the last year iv larnt a hell of a lot and it looks to be as you have your wire speed a bit to low and im not sure but i think you might not be holding the torch at quite the right angle.Quote:

all the best.
