View attachment 81188 @SundayRdr s broke r/f upper a arm mount that broke the weld right down the center. When we were messing with repairs Sunday we did the left side as well and discovered that weld was split down the center too
U would think they would b stouter disappointing really to say the least u would think they were stouter than thatI think they all will do it soon enough. I welded mine plus two more p700’s.
I agree. To me, the design looks like it's be stronger than the 1000 setupU would think they would b stouter disappointing really to say the least u would think they were stouter than that
Possibly too much heat when welded? The weld looked good. From what I've been told a weld is supposed to be half as wide or thick (cant remember) as the metal is thick and I saw no under cut enough to hurt anything. May have been enough weld on a colder setting but idk. The thin stuff the frames r made from on any sxs only gives so much that can b burnt into without burning into it too much before burning through and then ur breaking the frame itself instead of the weldI agree.

U weren't used to handling a big pecker like that were u lolA BFH helped a bunch along with ratchet straps. The frame never will be the same. It twisted the bracket when it finally broke loose. I didn't get a good before picture of it broken loose. 2/3 are after I beat it with a hammer and then after I used a ratchet strap and beat on it some more. It was pretty close once we done the finishing repairs.

In all fairness, I did run headon into a 3' mud wall lmao. My weld held fine, it was the actual metal that ripped. I promise you I'll have my passenger side beefed up before we try Hells CanyonMy guess is a lot of us push our vehicles beyond the design limits and sometimes we find out weaknesses but in a case like this it could be an intentional weakness designed as a crumple zone for head on collision.
I'd say you could install one between the front and rear mount. I was considering tieing the front and rear control arm mounts together but we just added braces to the rear control arm mounts on both sides.Chad is there room up there to install a boxed in K frame type section? Probably not but is a good idea.
Hey your the one who wants to talk about handling the big pecker. No one would've known. Lol.Lmao dam Chad c what u do to people
Yep, Delton is one of a kind. He's the guy to have with ya if you break.
