Mike, I am worried about the same thing. Finish welding the two plates in at least, IIWM I'd also throw a piece of plate on each side @45deg to gusset them. They appear to have either already shifted from the heat or maybe it's just the pic itself..at any rate, we're not trying to bash. Just opinion here, I'm seeing what Jerrod is also w/ the off-angle pulls.
