Hello folks, how are you? I hope you're doing well. Like a month ago or a bit more, I posted that I discovered a repaired crack on the inner side of the right frame rail, right where the transfer case begins. The previous repair was a weld over the crack and just a metal plate welded in the exterior of the frame rail, but after looking more into the subject, I saw that many people use fish plates. I tried to replicate something similar: a diamond-shaped outer plate with rounded edges, and a pill-shaped inner plate. What do you think? Have any of you repaired your chassis (if that happened to you) in a similar way? I’d love to see it. Greetings from Peru!!! And sorry for my poor english


P.S.: I hope the photos are decent, I took them in a hurry.
