[Cruz_Campos]

for what vehicle, some don't need any reinforcement and if so, your probably better of buying an aftermarket spindle with a higher rating.

If you dont run chains the spindle can actually be stretched apart. The angle on there stops that.

To those that have done this with out any problems, what type of welder rod/wire did you use?

 

[stevie d]

i was gunna run chains ,so if i use chains i wont need to add the angle ,hell i didnt know there was so much work involved in building a hopper
