Today I cut the release pin for the ball, ground the side plate, and welded the release rod back on. That allowed me to not have to cut the frame rail to clear the release handle. I then tacked in 2 support cross members under the center section, then removed the center section, and welded them in. Next I sat the center section back in, trimmed one corner to get it to sit back flush, and then welded the center section in.



Then I cut another piece to replace the rear cross member.

Hopefully I can get more done this weekend.Ryan
