Ok I got it installed and its pretty secure. I used the original metal bracket, I had to heat it up and beat it with a hammer to flatten out some curves, I wish I had taken a picture of it before I started because it looks nothing what it started out to be any ways here it is and please take it easy on my welds its only like the third time I ever welded but the metal bars I installed for support are on there good and quite frankly no one will ever notice

how it looks like mounted, sorta

added washers for clearance and support

and how it looks like mounted its pretty stiff Im happy with it
