    All I did was stand on the end of the frame rails and jump up and down.
    A classic example of how “Mechanical Engineers” perform tests to insure safety. No doubt about it, your test will absolutely apply more stress than a pot holed laced road at 60 mph. (this is not intended as an insult to real "Mechanical Engineers")

    As for pretty welds also mentioned, mine never "stand up" because they have plenty of penetration.
    Or, perhaps you do not know how to weld.

    With TIG or gas you can go over an area or the whole length of a weld to increase penetration or add a little filler.
    Which if done incorrectly can make the weld even more porous and susceptible to cracking.

    Still not worried in the least. My shock mounting brackets and their welds have many times the necessary strength and they are stronger than what I replaced.
    And you know this for a fact because of your superior welding and testing skills.

    Up until now I was not trying to criticize, I was only trying to help you recognize areas that needed more attention.

    I now believe it’s time for you to STOP before you hurt yourself or someone else. Swallow your pride and LEARN how to do it correctly..

    It may be time for the moderators to post a disclaimer on your thread to protect the innocent from being hurt by your BAD technics and practices.


    Sorry if I offended anyone…..
