Looks good. How much did it cost to get the rear done?

Hey can you guys post a photo from underneath (or a drawing if you don't have a photo) of how the tube is welded on at the attachment point closest to the receiver?

Just trying to figure out a configuration that will keep it tight like you guys have, but still allow me to poke my welder in far enough to weld completely.

Once you have everything measured cut and dry fit, or even tacked, can't you just remove the bumper plastic to get full access to weld?

I'm going on the assumption the bumper plastics will be off. I'm thinking about the spot where the tube is closest to the rear frame--seems pretty tight (and the tighter the better), might be hard to poke the welder tip into that gap and still get a clean weld where the round surface (tube) is closest to the flat surface (rear frame/crossmember).
